About CDLS Uganda Martyrs University is committed to making a difference; one way to do this is to provide demand driven education. There is a demand for flexibility in learning and that for courses that provide skills, knowledge and competence that are directed in the work place now. There is a gradual growing interest to study. This also comes for the already employed who want to study without necessarily leaving their employment. Uganda Martyrs University acknowledges this and is committed to providing tailor made distance education courses for the employed.
Distance learning offers flexibility of the learner in time, location, communication and study program among others. At Uganda Martyrs University, Distance learning programs range from Diploma, through undergraduate to post graduate courses. The mode of delivery of these programs is mainly by modules, CD-ROMs, diskettes that are supplemented by residential workshops. In the near future electronic learning will be introduced.
The majority of students currently at UMU are on distance learning programs. Considering the importance the university attaches to distance learning, a Center for Distance Learning Studies (CDLS) has been created to promote the smooth running of distance learning programs. The faculties that are running Distance-Learning Programs include; Faculty of Education (purely distance programs), Faculty of Agriculture (purely distance programs), Faculty of Business Administration and Management (BAM) and Institute of Ethics and Development Studies (IEDS).
