AB - In a distance education system, a tutor plays a critical role to supporting distance learners due to its own human nature, As research reports tutor’s unique effects on student achievement, satisfaction, and persistence in learning at a distance, distance education institutions are reassessing the value of tutors while trying to build up more effective systems that can work for their students. Among others, the case of the Open University of Hong Kong(OUHK) was analyzed in this article under the themes of tutor selection, training and support, monitoring, and rewarding. For the analysis, the author drew upon two publications from OUHK: Tutor Training Course and Course Coordinator Training Manual. Some characteristics on the ways OUIIK operates her tutor system were identified in the article, as they reveal the institution’s efforts to quality distance education,
