The Norwegian Association for Distance Education (NADE) is a national membership organisation for institutions involved in distance education in Norway. The organisation was established in 1968, and has since then played an active role in the development of distance education in Norway.
The members of the organisation are independent distance education institutions, public universities and colleges, private institutions and training centres for business and industry.
NADE is a consultative and co-operating body for the Ministry of Education, Research and Church Affairs in matters concerning distance education.
Its web site in English is at http://www.nade-nff.no/default.pl?showPage=189
Details
NADE's objectives are to spread knowledge about distance education, to heighten its professional and pedagogical standards and to strengthen the position of distance education within the Norwegian educational system.
The organisation aims to develop distance teaching methods and to support research and development of methods and techniques in the field of distance education.
NADE supports a continuous development of a high professional and ethical standard in the field of distance education. The organisation functions as its members' common body toward the authorities and works for the interest and the conditions of its members and their students.
