Prospective ÖйúAƬ students can now access essential information on more than 32,000 courses in the United Kingdom through a multimedia CD-Rom.

StudyLink UK from Education MultiMedia Enterprises (EMME), was initiated by the Committee of Vice Chancellors and Principals with the Standing Conference of Principals, and colleges in Scotland. The authors claim it represents the most authoritative and up-to-date electronic source of information on ÖйúAƬ courses available.
