Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic brought online learning to the forefront of education across the globe. Educational institutions were forced to develop and deliver online programmes of study at a manner and pace that left many unprepared. A year and a half into the pandemic, the need for review and evaluation of swiftly developed online programmes is clearly indicated. This paper presents the process of developing a toolkit for evaluating online programmes by academics from the six partners of the European University of the Seas (SEA-EU) project. The toolkit provides a user-friendly guide for educators, managers and stakeholders in the education field, seeking to assess the quality of online programmes. The toolkit development process is extensively described in order to highlight its potential and the usefulness of collaborative work amongst international academic partners.
