Mr. Cola has extensive experience leading digital transformation across education, media and travel sectors.  

He was Open Colleges' Managing Director in Australia for over four years and oversaw the rapid growth of the group's online courses and student enrolments.

"We are delighted for Nic Cola to lead RMIT Online's next chapter, says Professor Alec Cameron, Vice-Chancellor and President of RMIT University.

Students learn about areas like Artificial Intelligence, Data Analysis, Digital Marketing or Cybersecurity with professionals who lead their fields inside some of the best companies in the country.
