"In just a week, we have seen 10 Cambodians students signing up for the prestigious University of Wales Master of Business Administration (MBA) programme," said Christina Anthony who is currently looking after the emerging markets in countries such as Mauritius, Thailand, Nigeria, Kenya, India, Indonesia and Philippines.

"More students recruitment for the University of Portsmouth Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Computing was also noted from Dubai and Pakistan."

According to Christina these two programmes are PurpleTrain.com's HOTSELLERS as they offer a prestigious, one-year acquisition to an MBA and a Bachelor Degree respectively from internationally-recognized universities.

Without having to worry about travel restrictions, added financial burden of overseas lodging, and high foreign tuition fees, these students can now well afford a superb university education through e-learning with PurpleTrain.com

Soth Vanthoch who has recently sign up for the MBA programme totally agrees with this, adding that e-learning has gained its popularity due to its flexibility and easy accessibility, anytime, anywhere.

Served a lecturer who teaches management and business communications in Cambodia, Soth expects to further equip his skill in the field of business communications and management. He sees this as an opportunity to improve his career as well as broaden his views in business administration.

e-Learning levels the playing field for many people, as it allows students in a geographically dispersed environment to study at home, at their own pace and time.

PurpleTrain.com is proud that these students are now firmly on their way to bigger and brighter things through the acquisition of knowledge and academic excellence through its online education programmes.
