Asian Campus e-Learning System (ACES) provides an integrated e-learning culture that facilitates the students learning of Open University Malaysia (OUM) postgraduates programs. OUM has positioned itself as an alternative avenue for the public to gain quality tertiary and lifelong education. As an open learning institution, OUM subscribes to the following principles:

Flexible entry requirements to provide more opportunities for the members of the society to pursue their aspirations;

A student-friendly academic system where the constraints and needs of working adults are well understood.

Through OUM, working adults can upgrade their knowledge and skills for the purpose of career progression, career transition or pursuing lifelong learning ambitions, all within the comfort of their homes. OUM has certainly brought into existence a new approach to tertiary education that gives rise to greater flexibility in learning, as well as providing the necessary knowledge and skills for the workforce to compete in the ever challenging environment of the new millennium.
