COVID-19 brought unprecedented global challenges -- reshaping all aspects of human life and was a catalyst for educational change. In the wake of the first lockdown in Greece, Alba saw this disruption as an opportunity to reshape our learning modes to cover students’ needs. In a matter of 10 days, we transitioned from classroom teaching to online learning.
Despite this difficult experience, we learned how important it is to be agile and adaptable, qualities that we try to promote to our students. We realized that Alba needed to create new ways of teaching since not all of our students are the same. We understood that the responsibility of an academic institution is to adapt its academic programs to help our students develop skills and become lifelong learners.
