The UNC Division of Information Resources and the UNC Division of Academic Affairs are responsible for development of UNC's strategy for e-Learning. E-Learning will enable the University to expand access to more North Carolinians despite projected constraints on capacity. UNC e-Learning offerings will focus on three learner segments: adult degree completion students, professionals and corporate learners.

The Division of Information Resources will provide expertise and support for development of the technical infrastructure to implement the e-Learning Strategy. By seeking economies of scale and pursuing an enterprise approach to on-line services, the division will help the University deliver reliable, high quality access to e-Learning courses and degree programs.

PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) was engaged to provide an assessment of the technical readiness of the 16 constituent campuses to implement a more coordinated approach to e-learning. The University of North Carolina E-Learning Readiness Assessment (eLRA) Project Final Report provides a summary of this assessment; the content of this report will be utilized as a guide for continued dialogue and planning regarding the implementation of a UNC E-Learning Strategy.

Robyn R. Render, vice president for information resources and CIO, and Gretchen Bataille, senior vice president of academic affairs, serve as co-chairs of the e-Learning steering committee, which oversees implementation of the e-Learning Strategy for the Office of the President. Other committee members represent University-Schools Programs and WUNC-TV.
