The Enhancing Digital Education in the Mediterranean initiative, led by the Union for the Mediterranean, has joint efforts with the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, the first fully online university in the world created in 1994. The aim of the initiative is to set the basis of a meaningful dialogue and the exchange of best practices to accelerate the Digital Transformation of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) within and among the Mediterranean countries.
This guide aims to complement and expand on the webinars designed by the UOC in collaboration with the UfM, targeting leaders, administrators, faculty, and researchers from Mediterranean region countries involved in the digital transformation of their educational institutions. The webinars provided an initial 12-hour foundational training, which is now supplemented by this guide. It includes eight sections divided into two parts, corresponding to the eight sessions that are recorded and available below.
