The year 2020 will go down in history as the year that has changed the world beyond recognition and surely beyond our collective imagination. Life, as we know it, has come to a grinding halt since the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and its accompanying restrictions. Higher education institutions, in the presence of radical change, have shifted to online learning, as a response to the need for continuity of learning and to embrace the New Normal. Resilience and adaptability have become the buzz words and the ones that UWI ROYTEC have always cherished and mastered.
The real challenge is for institutions to select the right technologies and approaches to educating, engaging and supporting both students and lecturers, in a manner that will maintain high standards of teaching and learning.
UWI-ROYTEC remains steadfast in its commitment to ensuring that exceptional standards are maintained. The institution was accredited by the Accreditation Council of Trinidad and Tobago in 2017, for a period of 7 years and has since been a part of an international quality paradigm. Our cadre of lecturers are highly-qualified, competent professionals who have all undergone extensive training to deliver their courses through various online platforms and are well-equipped to bring their online teaching expertise to the virtual classroom.
As a means of supporting the learning experience, a wide range of online services are available. A strong technical team, provides 24/7 support for lecturers and students. All traditional, face to face support services are now provided online and include advising, counselling, library services and workshops for the all-round development of students, as they navigate the new, online, higher education learning experience.
Sensitive to the challenges of the pandemic, key among them being finance, the institution has made good effort to design payment plans to facilitate access and address the burden of students and parents. Officers are ready to discuss financing options and payment plans based on need.
UWI-ROYTEC supports students and lecturers every step of the way. We firmly believe, that our people centred approach will facilitate easy access to higher level studies, assure quality standards of teaching and learning are maintained and ensure that students are fully-prepared for the evolving business environment through the acquisition of 21st century skills for a digital age.
