A discussion titled “Challenges in Organizing Online Education in the Republic of Armenia” was held at Brusov State University.

The event brought together representatives of the Committee on Higher Education and Science, universities, and various organizations to address the main issues related to the implementation and regulation of distance learning in Armenia.
The round table was organized within the Erasmus+ grant project “Enhancing the Quality of Online Education in Higher Education Institutions of Moldova and Armenia” (MEDIA). Armenian universities participating in the program — the National Polytechnic University of Armenia, Vanadzor State University, and Brusov State University — presented several developed documents: “Code of Ethics for Digital Communication,” “Institutional Quality Standards for Online Courses,” and “Methodological Framework for Synchronous and Asynchronous Learning.” These documents aim to establish a legal foundation for the development of online education in the Republic of Armenia. During the discussion, participants pointed out current shortcomings in the field and highlighted essential regulatory issues.
The discussion continued on June 25 at a seminar hosted by the National Polytechnic University of Armenia. The results and proposals will be submitted to the Committee on Higher Education and Science for consideration and national-level implementation.
