After the discussions between the two - a team from ABU University lead by Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Kabiru Bala, Prof. Muhammed Ibrahim Sule, the Director of ABU Distance Learning Centre, and the Deputy Director of the Centre in charge of Learner Support & Information and Technology, Dr. Usman Abubakar Zaria and Mr. Sharafudhin Mangalad, the Managing Director of Edoxi Training Institute, Dubai, both the organisations agreed to collaborate on a number of workable areas.

Based on the discussions, the Training Center in Dubai, which has the state-of-the-art facilities and a number of accreditations, agreed with Ahmadu Bello University to use Edoxi’s facilities for the purpose of conducting ABU Distance Learning Centre (ABUDLC) exams. The University will also use the institute’s office as a resource and information centre.

Edoxi Training Institute will also promote ABUDLC within UAE and Asia as a whole, in addition to identifying for ABU a number of programmes that portend huge patronage within Asia, if delivered via robust online means.

“The Edoxi-Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) partnership is a powerful combination. ABU's understanding of our training expertise, world-class facilities along with an Agile, collaborative approach is uniquely complimentary to how the Edoxi team works. We believe this helps to generate industry leading training programs and outcomes,” said Mr Sharfudhin Mangalad, Edoxi Training Institute's managing director in Dubai, UAE. 

The Institute has further agreed to work on seeing that all identified short training courses are certified by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), United Arab Emirates.

Responding to the event, The Vice-Chancellor of ABU, Prof. Kabiru Bala, described the partnership as a remarkable event and an opportunity to expand the university's academic programmes beyond Nigeria. 

"The new normal arising from the COVID-19 pandemic has pushed us to adapt to the emerging realities and to create new frontiers. We are seeing this new collaboration as a part of strategizing and re-inventing the educational content delivery methods,” said ABU Distance Learning Centre director Prof. Muhammed Ibrahim Sule. 

The Nigeria’s Ambassador to UAE, His Excellency, Mohammed Dansanta Rimi, thanked the Vice-Chancellor and other members of the team for the visit and pledged to continue to support the University in this direction.
