Online higher education is shifting faster than most institutions can keep up with, and the gap between what is possible and what is being implemented in higher education is widening.
OnlineEd 2026 is here to help you close that gap.
This event brings together leading authorities in digital learning to examine what is new, what works, and what is next for online higher education.
As in previous years, the sessions will focus on practical, scalable approaches that can help academic institutions deliver strong educational value while managing cost and accessibility.
Sessions will explore how online teaching and digital resources can:
- Improve learning outcomes
- Reduce overall instructional costs
- Expand access for diverse and remote learners
- Support different online models such as microcredentials, lifelong learning, and competency-based learning
- Strengthen institutional resilience by using online learning to stay adaptable during rapid change and financial constraints
