Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, online learning was seen as the inevitable future of education, and institutions must be prepared to embrace such technology. Although the United Arab Emirates is one of the leading countries in the Arab world and the region in many indicators, their higher education and training are among the lowest in the Arab region.
