Abstract: 

The University of the West Indies (UWT) is supported by 15 countries of the English-speaking Caribbean and is the only regional university. UWI delivers its programmes on the three campuses, by distance education techniques and, to a growing extent, through regional Tertiary Level Institutions (TLIs). This latter mode of delivery was encouraged by a major internal study of the university's operations that recommended that the tertiary colleges should become close partners of the university.
