Tiivistelmä
The MOPEDE project ran from 1 September 2020 to 31 August 2024 involving a consortium consisting of Jamk University of Applied Sciences, Centria University of Applied Sciences, both from Finland, and the Technical and Vocational Training Institute from Ethiopia. The specific outcome of this collaboration was to institutionalise e-learning throughout TVTI and its 15 satellite colleges, by integrating online learning across the curriculum, thereby modernising teaching and learning methods.
This guidebook is divided into four thematic chapters in which each of the interwoven processes are exemplified. In the first chapter, Futureproofing the institution, we look at the various aspects of creating an application for third party project funding. Chapter 2, Institutionalisation of online learning, discusses the process of change management conducted within TVTI, the cornerstone of successful and sustainable digital transformation. The upskilling of TVTI’s faculty members is covered in the third chapter, Creating sustainable blended learning. This process was based on the cascade method as a multiplier of new skills. Finally, chapter 4 clarifies the technical requirements and processes needed to support e-learning. It details the hardware requirements and also the administrative processes and procedures that must in be in place to make such a transformation successful and sustainable.
