Everyone is trying to cope with the crisis using many innovative ways. The unprecedented situation has given a boost to online learning through digital media. However, in the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) space, online learning alone is not enough. It requires the blended approach to design skill-based learning.  

Online learning adaptation is the core focus of the Dept Of Higher Education as set out at the National Skills Conference on the 28th and 29th September 2021. 

It was also highlighted the necessity for blended approach Learning, both in Industry as well as in TVETS, Universities and Private Training Centres, which is fast becoming the need of the hour.

Consequently, students are working from home with no idea how to utilize their time – leaving them uncertain about the future.
