Description

Running an organization that deals with any kind of education is challenging. This has proven to be even more challenging in the Digital Age. Online organizational management requires multiple digital tools to help an organization provide high-quality, efficient, productive, imaginative, and creative education.

The motivation of both employees and learners is vital. As a result, participants will also learn how to efficiently manage their employees’ resources in the Digital Age.

The course will raise awareness of all the needs of learners, teachers, and administration, and how to effectively meet them. Throughout the course, participants will be encouraged to create a plan for applying the newly-taught techniques at all the levels of their own organization.
