UNITAR, Malaysia's first virtual University, was launched with
the unique aim of providing distance education using state of
the art technologies. UNITAR selected NIIT to jump start the content
creation for the University.
NIIT partnered
with UNITAR and helped develop over 100 hours of instructional
material for the students of Bachelor Degree programs for their
first intake at the time of the launch of the University. NIIT
also licensed the Vista Multimedia engine for developing future
multimedia learning content.
