- W2747819980 abstract "The growth of open and distance learning (ODL) in higher education institutions in West Africa has generated concern about comparability of standards and recognition accorded products of ODL institutions. There is also concern about adherence of newly established ODL institutions to prescribed quality criteria hence public skepticism about ODL. To address this challenge, the foremost single-mode higher institution in Nigeria, the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) was chosen to host the Regional Training and Research Institute for Open and Distance Learning (RETRIDAL) that was established by the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) to build capacity in West African higher institutions in ODL. This paper reviewed the role of RETRIDAL at improvement of quality in NOUN and other ODL institutions in West Africa along a Framework involving quality policy and plan, identifying critical function, specification of standards, involvement of users, documentation, training and staff development, monitoring and cost. RETRIDAL organizes training workshops for single and dual mode higher institutions in West Africa. Research and Development activities of RETRIDAL include programme evaluation on various functional areas of distance education for systems development and improvement. The institutional, national and international training programmes with the help of RETRIDAL-NOUN resource persons and instructional delivery media facilities available at NOUN have continued to improve the quality of instruction for distance learners, aiming at ensuring zero-defects in ODL programmes, enhancing fitness for purpose." @default.
