Whiteboard via its partnership with Finntrack design new courseware and/or adapt their existing, extensive module specific courseware for universities as a in-class teaching and self-directed study media. Also, as an option for universities, they may choose to validate our existing courses with relevant courseware for their own delivery. These programmes are available to recognised institutions with appropriate awarding powers only at very reasonable terms.

Further Education Colleges and Training Institutes

Most FE colleges and training centres are unable to make their own undergraduate or postgraduate degree level awards. FE Colleges usually require a relevant accreditation from a University or College of Higher Education as an accredited centre to deliver degree level programmes. Finntrack has signed an agreement with a several universities to appoint selected institutions to run their programmes throughout the world and/or for the partner Universities to consider applications from successful university foundation, certificate and diploma level student for international advanced placements for a whole or partial study on their degree courses at the Partner University home campuses.
