Damelin is a private college, with 17 campuses, owned by Educor (the Education Investment Corporation Limited) group.〔〔〔 It was founded by Benjamin Damelin in 1943.〔〔〔〔 Despite offering degrees, diplomas and other higher qualifications, Damelin is considered a college instead of a university due to the regulations for tertiary institutions in South Africa.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Suffering in private )〕 Damelin is a wholly owned division of Educor (the Education Investment Corporation Limited) group,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Premier supplier of private education in Southern Africa. - Educor )〕 which National Pride Trading 452 purchased in January 2008.〔 Damelin is the oldest and most profitable education subsidiary owned by Educor.〔 By November 2012, over one million students had graduated from Damelin.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Damelin voted top higher education institution )〕 ==History== In 1943, Benjamin Damelin established Damelin as a "cramming college for white students".〔 In 1951, Johann Brummer joined Damelin as a teacher, 〔 in 1952, becoming a partner and serving as Educor's Executive chairman until his resignation in 1998.〔 One of the key aspects in the development of the Damelin name was initiated in 1952 when Brummer started developing materials for long distance learning, which later became the Damelin Correspondence College in 1955.〔〔 In the early years of the 1960s, Damelin began offering evening classes at what would later become their Johannesburg Campus .〔 In 1968, the Damelin Management School was established and offered education and training to adults for the attainment of Damelin certificates.〔〔 In the 1970s, many of the prisoners imprisoned on Robben Island were registered as students of Damelin. In 1985, the Damelin Computer School, which only offered part-time programs at the time, was established in Johannesburg.〔〔 By 1991, Damelin had started offering contact instruction to University of South Africa students, which had been established for middle-class African students who were unable to gain entry into universities of higher prestige with higher level education. All these programs were coordinated at the same Johannesburg site for many years until 1993, when the Braamfontein Campus was founded.〔 In 1998, the University of Pretoria approached the Damelin Computer School to facilitate the computer training of residential students of the University of Pretoria on their main campus〔http://www.iatul.org/doclibrary/public/Conf_Proceedings/2000/Thompson.rtf〕 because their IT faculty was better suited to training undergraduates than the University of Pretoria's .〔 By 2005, Damelin was the only institution in Southern Africa whose Bachelor of Commerce degrees were recognized by the Oxford Brookes University, a university established in 1992..〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=City Press, Sondag 20 Februarie 2005, p. 11: SA needs more marketers )〕 In 2007, Damelin aligned their programs with the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Damelin ups NQF-aligned programmes for 2007 )〕 and by 2008, Damelin was offering more than 200 NQF programs.〔 In 2008, Educor was purchased by National Pride Trading 452 as a going concern〔 and the Milpark Business School started integrating the Damelin School of Banking and Insurance's academic operations as part of their offerings.〔http://www.skillsportal.co.za/page/training/articles/186889-Top-financial-business-school-now-also-a-registered-private-FET-college#.Ub9XbeeBm2E〕 In 2013, Pacofs signed a three-year contract with Damelin for the training of audio engineers.〔http://theweekly.co.za/?p=16684〕 In October 2013, the Damelin Gaberone campus cut its ties with Damelin South Africa and renamed itself.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Imperial School of Business and Science drops Damelin franchise )〕 From November 2013 as part of an initiative in the South African education sector called ''Project Athena'', the South African telecommunication company Telkom has pledged to give over 40 000 SIM cards to Damelin students over the course of three months. In the next phase of this project, free Wi-Fi access is to be implemented across selected Damelin campuses for students to use.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Telkom Business partners with Damelin on mobile deal )〕〔http://www.humanipo.com/news/35737/telkom-to-give-out-40000-free-sim-cards-to-students/〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Telkom, Damelin in mobile deal )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Damelin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
