OLG has been at the forefront of changes in distance learning education.
Open Learning Group (OLG) has signed up as a partner for the inaugural HR Indaba, which is to be held at the Sandton Convention Centre on 3 & 4 October 2018. Established in 1997, OLG is a Private Higher Education Institution (PHEI) offering qualifications that are delivered through a blended distance-learning model and learnerships, skills programmes and short learning programmes that are delivered through contact sessions.
In an age where knowledge is the new currency, the demand for quality higher education has dramatically increased. This interest has emerged, not only from school leavers but also from employed individuals who are striving to up-skill midcareer. As most traditional universities have limitations in terms of space and flexibility, distance learning has become the preferred choice for many individuals seeking alternative high-quality education.

OLG appeals to both students with great career aspirations, companies looking to develop employees, or education institutions that require administrative and operational support throughout students’ learning journeys. The company’s accredited qualifications are designed to prepare and equip individuals for the dynamic world of logistics and supply chain management.
While OLG is a distance education provider, the company also has learning hubs - centres that are strategically positioned across South Africa, which enable students to interact with academic staff in a secure and easily accessible environment to support their distance education activities.
As a partner, OLG will have an exhibition stand at the HR Indaba, which will be the largest of its kind in South Africa. It will give HR professionals an opportunity to learn everything they need to know about the latest HR technology, HR strategy, company culture, labour laws, recruitment, employee engagement and HR leadership. It will also bring together thousands of colleagues, suppliers, platforms, universities, specialists, recruitment agencies, CHROs and thought leaders.
