The University of the West Indies Distance Education Centre (UWIDEC) is offering the online course on Local e-Governance in the Caribbean for a third time. The course will be offered for eleven weeks: from 19 September to 2 December 2007. It is anticipated that there will be considerable competition for places, so it is advisable to apply early, well before the applications closure date of 29 July 2007. A limited number of UWIDEC scholarships (US$100 towards the registration fee) will be awarded on a competitive basis. The course was developed and run for the first time from September to December 2005 and the second - from April to June 2006, with the assistance and support of UNESCO. The course does not assume any formal tertiary or higher education qualification, but it does assume that participants will have relevant post-secondary experience and training.
