The three-day exhibition themed: Enhancement of teaching, learning and assessment with ODEL in Higher Education brought together relevant stakeholders to display responses to the challenges faced by higher education institutions, with special attention to the global disruption created by COVID-19. Thirty nine universities participated, attracting other degree awarding institutions, tertiary institutions and companies.

The Eexcutive Director NCHE Prof. Mary Okwakol said the theme is also built on the notion of the relevance of Higher Education Institutions in contributing to the advancement and development of societies.

Okwakol said that this 13th Blended Higher Education Institutions Exhibition is expected to widen the outreach scope of the Higher Education Exhibition to the entire nation and the world at large.
