Telematic Services, as part of the Centre for Learning Technologies, enhances the virtual mobility of geographically dispersed students to broaden their participation in the academic offering of Stellenbosch University ‐ especially those who want to combine a professional career with further postgraduate studies to maximise their potential. The enhancement of the students’ virtual mobility blurs the customary divide between face to-face and off-campus educational opportunities, while the barriers often set by location and time are reduced. This flexible learning strategy relies on a unique technology platform that integrates satellite, mobile, web-based and video conference technologies.
