Only 5% of Diaspora Armenians have an opportunity to attend Armenian
schools. The new Armenian classroom is already a reality. From now
on world-spread Armenians will have their on-line school.

According to the Founding Director of the on-line college, Dr. Yervand
Zoryan, the on-line education is a good alternative for the remaining
95%.

Anyone has an opportunity to study at the new virtual educational
establishment, irrespective of age, the place of residence and the
level of knowledge. The first virtual classrooms were opened on June
14 and 150 students from 22 classes use the on-line service.

The education is paid. One course includes 9-week classes and costs
$199.

Participation in the courses is voluntary, but the one who takes all
the courses, will get a diploma.
