In special circumstances such as the one presented by the coronavirus universities must convert their face-to-face courses to online. This conversion is challenging for all universities, but extremely challenging for universities that offer all their courses face-to-face.

This paper shows that higher education institutions can acquire the basic technology and be quickly trained to convert their face-to-face courses to online while trying to achieve the quality that is in line with the quality level defined in their organization’s strategy.
