Cambridge College to launch e-learning in India
Cambridge Colleges name might indicate to some that it is a local institution. Not so — the college has satellite schools as far away as Ontario and San Juan. And now they plan to expand even farther.
India has great potential to be the next superpower in the world, said Nishikant Sonwalkar, vice president of the Center for Adaptive Learning and Programs at Cambridge College. Sonwalkar and college president, Mahesh Sharma, are currently in the process of opening a school in Mumbai. The two have made a number of trips to India to lay the groundwork for the project. The idea is to provide the opportunity for higher education to the workforce there, plying them with the skills needed to join the ever-growing international business world.
