Distance and Hybrid Education Models: How Can We Maintain Quality?

The webinar series “Distance and Hybrid Education Models: How Can We Maintain Quality?” addressed one of the most pressing questions in contemporary higher education: ensuring academic rigor and student engagement in flexible learning environments. As institutions worldwide increasingly adopt distance and hybrid models to meet diverse learner needs and adapt to changing circumstances, maintaining high standards of teaching, assessment, and support services has become both a challenge and priority. Through expert insights, case studies, and critical discussions, this series aims to explore effective strategies, quality assurance frameworks, and innovative practices that can help institutions deliver meaningful and high-quality educational experiences across various modalities.
