Welcome from Executive Director Dave Cillay

As educator Carol Twigg once observed, the first ATMs were placed inside banks and only available during banking hours…hmmm. The world has indeed changed. Just as banks have recognized a need to reach out to the people they serve, so has education.
WSU has a long history of using the latest tools to remove barriers between students and education. WSU Online, for example, has been delivering distance education for nearly 20 years. This eLearning website distills experience from all of our University colleagues, along with research-based advice from other experts. It’s designed to help anyone using online instructional tools, whether for students in front of them or hundreds of miles away.
The blog section of the website lets us talk to you directly, and lets you talk to us. We’ll post information, tips and techniques. You are invited to ask questions and share your own knowledge and experience. To have posts automatically delivered, simply select the subscribe button.
We look forward to exploring this new world with you. We believe it has exciting, engaging and limitless possibilities.
David Cillay
Executive director/Center for Distance and Professional Education
