Online reporter

STATE-OWNED mobile telecommunications service provider, NetOne, has introduced ‘Dzidzo’, a new e-learning platform for Universities that will allow students access to discounted data bundles.

In a statement on Thursday, NetOne head of marketing and public relations, Ms Roselyn Chisveto, said the Dzidzo bundle will zero rate e-learning portals of universities.

“NetOne will zero rate e-learning portals of Universities and sell tailor-made and discounted e-learning bundles to students accessing the zero-rated sites.

“The Dzidzo bundle will only be valid for a week. It will be accessed via *171# platform by numbers in the student class of service,” she said.

“A separate Class of Service was created and Universities will be assisting in providing links to their Registry Database, where registered students with NetOne numbers will be able to access the bundle.”

According to NetOne for a University student to access the platform, they will need to submit their NetOne number to the particular college’s registry department.
