The Mission of Eden University ODLD is to expand access to education by offering alternative to those qualified applicants who are unable to enroll for full time programmes, and those who - for various reasons, - prefer the convenience and ease of studying from home.

In the past decade, distance education has become an increasingly popular way for colleges to provide access to their programmes and for students to learn about topics and get degrees they might not otherwise be able to pursue, it occurs when there is a separation between the instructor and the student, usually due to geographical or time concerns that prevent the student from attending an on-campus course. These programmes have usually been specially designed to help best meet the needs and requirements that arise when learning is taking place outside of a traditional classroom setting.

Some of the programmes listed on the website are offered by Kampala International University, (KIU), in collaboration with Eden University, Lusaka, Zambia. KIU is a fully chartered university with campuses in Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. In addition to being a member of the Association of African Universities, it is also a member of the Association of Commonwealth Universities. Those who successfully complete one of the distance learning programmes listed here, will graduate with an award from Kampala International University.

All the Distance Learning Programmes are fully available online. Each programme has its own website where students can find the required study guides, assignment workbooks, and video links related to their course. The website also provides a forum for online-discussion between students on topics set by their tutors who are all based in Zambia. Students can also correspond directly with their tutor on any issue raised in their course. For those wishing to receive their study materials via email, or on a flash drive, or printed version, they should contact the Distance Learning Office at Eden University.
