Glenfield’s trainings and educational courses were delivered by traditional face-to-face models, and with the COVID-19 outbreak, they have successfully transitioned to the basic on-line delivery which does impose certain limitations. Therefore, the immediate benefit recognized from cooperating with transnational partner in this project was the possibility of introduction of digital distance learning platform, which would expand the reach, and improve the scope and the features of educational content provided to final beneficiaries. The benefit would also reflect in high success rates of educational programs application, aiming to increase the development potential of entrepreneurs and MSMEs, their sustainability and resilience.
