USQ Vice Chancellor Professor Peter Swannell said the awards were international recognition of USQ's long-standing record as the world's best provider of education by distance and other flexible delivery modes including the Internet. Queensland and Australia can be very proud of our record of leadership in breaking down the global tyranny of distance. He said the ICDE prizes provided further evidence that USQ was leading the nation into the new era of globally competitive online and distance education. USQ is a regional university with an international mission. The awarding of the prizes coincides with a major USQ initiative - USQ Online , which takes Internet delivered Australian higher education to a new level of pedagogical and technological quality and sophistication.
