New face on e-learning board

Donald Clark, former CEO at e-learning company Epic, has been appointed to the board of Ufi Ltd, the company behind learndirect and UK online.

John Weston, chairman of the Ufi board, said: "Donald makes a welcome addition to our team, and the board is positioned to take Ufi – now in its sixth year - forward to the next stage of its development as a provider of world-class e-learning and e-services.

"Donald’s experience in providing e-learning to large corporations will be invaluable in helping us maximise Ufi’s potential to generate commercial income through learndirect, and his background as a CEO and board member will help shape Ufi to play its part in increasing skills levels in the UK."

Donald Clark said: "I’ve recognised for many years the potential of computers to revolutionise the access to and delivery of learning. Since its launch in October 2000, learndirect has helped more than 1.7 million people improve their skills and their prospects, and is now one of the best known adult learning brands in the UK.

"I’m looking forward to being part of Ufi’s success, and helping even more individuals and businesses use technology to fulfil their potential."
