Lifelong learning is the best way to push boundaries and create new opportunities for yourself. By continuously engaging us as your learning partners—whether to pursue academic qualifications or undertake on-the-job training—you’ll unlock benefits that extend not only to you but to those around you. Hong Kong Metropolitan University (formerly the Open University of Hong Kong) has a long and proud history in open and distance education. The qualifications you earn from us are highly valued by the government, employers, and overseas universities.
To better serve the unique needs of distance and part-time students, the University has invested significant resources in establishing the School of Open Learning (SOL). The establishment of the School fully demonstrates HKMU’s strong commitment to promoting lifelong learning and fulfilling its historical mission.
The School of Open Learning is dedicated to providing comprehensive support to distance and part-time students. Our staff listens to your needs, provides student service to those committed to lifelong learning, develops and helps you identify suitable open learning opportunities, and assists you in overcoming academic challenges.
We are committed to helping you achieve simultaneous growth in your personal, professional, and social lives—allowing you to pursue multiple paths of development without sacrificing other opportunities and helping you seize breakthrough opportunities. Trust us to be your partner on this journey.
Dr. Matthew YEUNG Chi-hei
Dean of School of Open Learning
