Greetings!

Greetings and a Warm Welcome to American Northeastate University International Distance Learning.

If you are here or has been referred by a friend or ex graduate of ANU, you are here for a purpose. I may not know exactly your purpose but many of us, including myself, have been in these situations at one time or another and we need a solution.

The fact is, the solution is in YOU and only YOU can solve the problems, whatever they are.

Do you find that the economy or feel the economy is getting worse each year?Prices are going up for everything except your wages? Do you feel that there is increase pressure to find more sources of income or to cut down on expenses? The economy in the USA is going through a recession and it will have its effects ripple throughout the world.

We all need to brace for this effect and it does means getting ourselves equipped with the right knowledge and skills to tackle the future. Keeping our jobs is our priority but employers will only keep those who are useful and able to bring in income to the company. Again, that means, are you up to the mark of world class standards to compete with global competition? These are some of the very honest soul searching questions which you have to answer for yourself. If you think, you are lacking in knowledge, skills and qualifications to meet the future challenges then it is time to seriously consider the program offered by American Northeastate University.

Frankly, I have been teaching for 28 years for more than 10 different universities, spanning from the UK to Australia to USA with different programs. Up till today, if you look around you and ask yourself these questions: Which country’s economy control the world? Which country’s television and movies are most widely distributed in the world?

Which country invented the most demanded computers, software and MP3 in the world? Which country has the number one demand for automobiles and also who produces the largest number of automobiles in the world? In terms of MBA programs, which University is the most famous? Who has the most flexible and most current MBA programs in the world?

The answers to all these questions happened to lie with America. American economy is still number one in the world. Microsoft is in America, Apple Mac computers are from America, Ipod and iphone are from America, GM motors is the number one producer of automobiles in America, although Toyota nearly but did not overtake them in 2007. Harvard University is still the most famous in the world for MBA graduates. Google is the most powerful search engine in the world, again from America. KFC, McDonald, Starbucks, Hard Rock Café, Nike are all American brands. So why not choose from the best from the America? This is the reason why I have stuck with American Northeastate University, because they are good, really good and really world class players and performance.

And now, we have the most flexible, most innovative, most affordable and performance oriented MBA program from American Northeastate University. The ANU MBA program has produced a number of world class graduates who are making their marks in the international arena. You can’t be wrong to choose ANU program.

Today's essential knowledge for business

FREEscholarship brings you the relevant modules that are essential for today's business. Modules or subjects are obsolete are taken out from the program and new subjects are put in. This way, the students learned the most current and relevant knowledge in order for them to survive in the fierce competitions. Take for example, the first four core modules which the students must take in the diploma program are: Business Communication, Entrepreneurship, Marketing Management and E-Commerce. Why are these four core modules selected for the students at American Northeastate University?
Most students who wanted to start out their own business must have these basics of good business management. It is all about management in a business. Can you manage the operations? Can you manage the people? Can you manage the finance? These are key questions that an effective manager must answer.
Take Business Communication for example. In Business Communication, one learned about the model of communication, the process of communication. Understanding this concepts help one to be aware of how oneself communicates with his subordinates and if there is a lot of problems of misunderstanding or miscommunication, one will take steps to analyse the steps of communication in the company. From there, one can pin point the problem areas and make rectification on the problem. It has been said that '90 per cent of the problems in the operations can be attributed to communication problems'. So if the communication is right, the problems will disappeared.
A business depends on Marketing, in fact compelling marketing that will have customers asking for your goods and services. So you see, the subjects offered are not simply offered because they have the tutors to teach them but rather based on the relevancy of the needs in today's competitive environment. We will go through each module in details, so as to give each student an in depth understanding of what they will reap from each module. For details, contact: FREEscholarship888@gmail.com

A Journey of Change

The business environment is changing very rapidly. Technology and information are changing at nano seconds. Products, models of business, strategies and marketing techniques changes at lightning speed. I am not joking here, neither am I kidding you. These changes are real and are coming at us. If we are not prepare and ready to roll with it, we will be caught and there is very slim chances for survival in these changing crisis. One has to be proactive and have the foresight to anticipate ahead of change.
Your future is in your hands and the actions you take today will determine the course of the journey in your life. Be prepared for the new economy, the knowledge economy or information economy. Remember, time and changes wait for no one. You have to be prepared and be ready to change.
The acquisition of knowledge is not limited to campus university only. With the entry of web 2.0, learning take place in a different form. With the entry of digital video camera, compact disc and pen drive, You Tube, Blogs and laptops, the acquisition of knowledge starts at your own desk. Diploma programs, Degree Programs are delivered to your door steps through the net. Information and research can be done using the world wide web at your finger tips.
Now, the best part is that costs have come down. No more expensive tuition fees, no more delivery of expensive classroom tutorials.
Recognitions of university names is a thing of the past. It is now recognition of PERFORMANCE of the graduates or employees at workplace. Your rewards depends on your performance in your workplace ,not the piece of paper you have got from some ivy league university which you claimed you have paid hundreds of thousands of dollars. The reality is, I as the employer pay you ten thousand dollars and in return, I expect you to deliver twenty or thirty thousand dollars of performance. If you deliver only ten thousand or less, your performance is below par and you are ready to be kicked out. It doesn't matter to me if you are a graduate from some posh university. The only thing recognised by the board of directors, the organization, the society, is your performance, to be able to make money for the company, for the stakeholders, for the society and for the country. That is real and is a fact.

The Need For More Money

Recently, in Kuching or Cat City, we saw the opening of the largest upmarket hypermarket. It was designed by an architecture firm from New Zealand using prefabricated concrete technology. The hypermarket is modern with international brands coming in. I saw the buzz with all the teenagers and young men and girls. More interestingly is the outcome. I also noticed that, although there is huge crowd, most are coming away with nothing in their hands. This means that the majority are simply window shopping. This is not good news for the retailers.
My teenage girl went and was very interested on the clothings, fashion bags, shoes etc but without a steady income, she is limited by her purchasing power. Yes, international brands command also international prices and unless you have the purchasing power, one can only look only.
There is now an urgent need for young men and girls to increase their earnings if they want to enjoy those uptrend fashions. I am hopping that with the hypermarket offerings, it would stimulate the young men and girls to seriously think about their re-education and training needs and to really think about multiple source incomes. With their main income tied down to a car loan, they have very little left to move and unless they have multiple incomes, they will be left with very little means to purchase those things they desired. Continuous education is the key to unlock that wish. American Northeastate University MBA programs offer you a fast track to a better job security and also teaches you to be more entrepreneurial in your business. For business men and women, American Northeastate University Master of Business Administration offers you continuous learning to upgrade your strategic planning for your business survival and strategies to diversify your investment. Contact us at FREEscholarship888@gmail.com for your eligibility to a FREE scholarship without bonds and repayment.

Everyone need a chance

I was talking to a manager of a company who left or rather dropped out of school at a tender age. He climbed through rank and file. He confided in me that he wished he has a chance to reach tertiary education. He complained that nobody in the company listened to him as the others have at least an MBA degree.
Twenty years ago, I would have agreed with him that chances are slim for him to earn an MBA but not today with the current technology. Every one need a second chance and I told him about FREE scholarship ANU. He decided to follow my advice and today he is half way through his MBA program. We help him first by giving him a scholarship to kick start his program. As he goes through each module, we help him by giving him installment payments that is flexible to his budget and financial ability. He is now more confident in his tasks and is starting to get noticed by top management. I believe that within a year , he will be able to demonstrate his performance to the top management and will rightly earn his place and recognition within his company.

FREE Scholarship Argument

I have students who were enrolled into the MBA programs remarking that FREE scholarshipANU should revamp the meaning of FREE. They said 'FREE' should stand for
F-Foundations
R-Relevant
E- Education
E- Experience
Their argument for 'Relevant' instead of 'Right' is that today education curriculum is not relevant to the current needs of the industry. My conclusion is that today education is not right for the present industrial needs in many ways. Their system is not right, their assessment is not right because the examination system is really a test of speed in writing what you can remember and it is test of how much you can remember and recall. The system of not being able to bring in reference book is ridiculous because in reality, you are encourage to consult books, friends, consultants and experts in order to make an informed decisions for your business. So it is not only 'relevancy' but also 'right' education for everyone today.

Flexible, Adaptable and Consistency

I really like this Motto from ANU

Flexible - ANU has the most flexible programs that I have come across. The electives are wide enough for any graduates to choose to fit into his career development. You can say, it is customized to one's needs. Their classes are flexible to accommodate each student time. Many students are frequent travellers and could not attend the classes. Classes are arranged separately to accommodate each student's time. The program is also flexible enough, that students can deferred their studies and continued when they are ready. This is because they are not run on a semester basis.

Adaptable - ANU believes that education and training must be adaptable to the environment. Only then , it is useful. An education and training program that believes in its own environment and not others is a thing of the past but still, many universities have subscribed to this system. It is this adaptable feature that makes ANU outstanding because the programs are highly relevant to the work place and real world problems.

Consistency - In everything we do, it is consistency that takes the winner from the flock. Consistency in delivery, quality, service is the principle adopted by ANU. This is trait that ANU inculcate in our graduates. ANU may not be a big name but the baby steps it took, is consistent with its BIG vision and they have done great things and great achievement.

Best University Performance Programs

One of the university that I worked with for the longest time is American Northeastate University, located in Lexington, Kentucky State.
Their business program is probably one of the most pragmatic one and student friendly in the administration part.
The texts prescribed for the programs are the same ones as those used in ivy league universities. I loved their texts and most of all, the assignments given to the students are based on real work place scenarios. The assignments forced the students to think critically about their work place situations. Once they started to think and recall back what is happening in their workplace and analysed them with what they have learned from the modules, they begin to see the big picture.And that is where things start to happen. They begin to implement changes, steps and actions to rectify the problems in their work place. And I am beginning to see great results and performance for the graduates who have climbed the ladders of promotion in great leaps. Many have made it to the world class requirements, speed, efficiency and performance of results and income.
As for me, I have too, made great strikes and very happy for my past students. I am now restricting my supervision to 10 students at any one time so as to give time for my family and myself. I have a 100 per cent passes for my students, many with high distinctions of A and A- grades.
I have made applications for scholarships for my students and very happy to say that most got 60% to 80% scholarship, scholarships that are free from bond and repayment.
They only have to pay the grading fees, the textbooks and materials, the postage and packaging for their assignment and thesis. I have given free tuitions to them and is still continuing to do so, which is why I can only take in only 10 students at any one time because it is FREE.
For those who are interested, drop me a line at FREEscholarship888@gmail.com and I shall be happy to discuss with you the programs for Diploma right up to Doctorate programs

FREE SCHOLARSHIP Philosophy

The Philosophy of FREE

Our scholarship is Free to everyone who is interested and committed to educate and upgrade themselves in the right education for their work and employment or self development. The only requirement is the RIGHT ATTITUDE towards education and that is full commitment and discipline in your undertaking. In the past, we have students who are interested but do not have the commitment and discipline. If one has the commitment and discipline, nothing is impossible to achieve.

Creation of FREE scholarship

FREE SCHOLARSHIP

F - FOUNDATION

R - RIGHT

E – EDUCATION

E – EXPERIENCE

We need to revamp our education for our children. It is up to us to change that now. We cannot wait for the systems to change. We cannot wait for unemployment, retrenchment to force us to change. That is reaction. We want PRO action. And FREE Scholarship is doing just that. We are innovating and creating education, skills for the present and the future. This is the foundation you have been searching and seeking. This is the right education for you. And we provide the right experience for you so that you can practice out what you have learned and experience what works and doesn’t work.

Right now, what you need is right education and experience in order to be productive, employable, flexible and adaptable to a fast changing environment.

FREE SCHOLARSHIP is giving out scholarship in the form of free tuition fees. The students only need to foot the bills for postage, packaging, grading fees, printing of your certificates, degree parchments, graduation ceremonies. And we meant FREE Scholarship in the real sense that you do not have to pay back the scholarship. Many scholarships given, even by public universities are actually study loans, which the students have to payback at the end, that is, when they started working. However, we do encourage our students and graduates to give donations to our foundations to enable us to carry on this tradition of giving free scholarships to deserving students.
