The Education and training sector has faced its toughest challenge in the past 18 months. Covid-19 disrupted both the education providers and the students. The quick pivot by the institutions and the equally quick adaption by the students stand out as one of the unspoken victories in the fight against pandemic. The institutions faced the challenges of adopting new modes of content delivery to ensure continuity of education and assessment. The institutions were also faced with severer resource crunch in terms of technology, finance and personnel.
