Theme

In the past few years, many countries have witnessed significant transformations and reforms in their education systems, including the emergence of new types of educational units, changes in patterns of financing, the establishment of evaluation and accreditation mechanisms, and technological innovations. The emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 in late 2019 and human responses to the resulting COVID‐19 pandemic in early 2020 rapidly changed many aspects of educational mechanisms and procedures.

The COVID-19 pandemic caught every aspects of life and business, the educational system included, by surprise. Whilst digital transformation is not a novel phenomenon, this process consists of adequate strategic preparation, trust establishment, thinking in processes, amalgamation and reinforcement of all parties involved, separate, collaborative and organizational knowledge.
