The document summarizes the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in distance education for nursing students at Umeå University in Sweden. The program admits adult students aged 20-59, most of whom are women. Courses are delivered online through streaming lectures and online materials, with some physical meetings. This flexible format allows students to learn independently of distance and time. Since 2002, over 60 students have graduated from the program, with graduates working in various locations in Sweden and abroad. The conclusion is that ICT enables distance education to be independent of location and schedule, making nursing education accessible to new groups of students.
