Webinar “Telecommunications Policy and Education: Online Education”

Webinar “Telecommunications Policy and Education: Online Education”

On April 16th at 4:00 p.m. (CET), the Iberoamerican University Foundation (FUNIBER) will organize the webinar entitled “Telecommunications and Education Policy: Online Education”.

The session will be presented by Miguel López Coronado and Beatriz Sainz de Abajo and is part of the Jean Monnet Chair “Telecommunications Policy in the EU and Information Society” offered by the Universidad Europea del Atlántico (European University of the Atlantic, UNEATLANTICO).

Virtual education is promoting a type of flexibility in teaching that was unthinkable a few years ago. It extends to all educational levels giving rise to a tool of great strategic value. At the university level, virtual institutions have multiplied, and conventional ones are offering this new option. The global health crisis caused this system to become an efficient ally.

The event is held in collaboration with the Iberoamerican University Foundation (FUNIBER), the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de Puerto Rico (International Iberoamerican University, UNIB), the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de México (International Iberoamerican University of Mexico, UNINI Mexico), the Fundación Universitaria Internacional de Colombia (International University Foundation of Colombia, UNINCOL), the Universidade Internacional do Cuanza (International University of Cuanza, UNIC), and the Universidad de La Romana (University of La Romana, UNIROMANA).

The conference is free and open to all those interested in the topic, and will be broadcast live in each country in which FUNIBER is present. The broadcast schedules can be consulted at this link. Registration is required to participate:
