University, college and industrial co-operation in higher education¿projects Colorado SURGE and COTIE

With the support of federal and state-government grants, educational television is being used to solve a number of problems facing engineering educators in the state of Colorado. Industrial personnel can now study from a wide selection of university level courses without leaving their work locations, and college students have the opportunity to transfer directly to university with all prerequisite courses completed. Although the problems of continuing education in industry and college transfer requirements are somewhat peculiar to the United States, the techniques used to solve these problems could find application in the British educational system.
