DEC membership will allow Vlerick to connect with international leading universities, higher education institutions, business schools and experts in the field to jointly reflect on online learning trends and practices.

More specifically, Vlerick will be joining three thematic working groups:

  • Artificial Intelligence – Exploring AI applications in education, including ethical AI integration, to design best practices for the industry.
  • Digital and Online Learning – Enhancing best practices in online pedagogy and evaluating new tools from the DEC ecosystem.
  • Business School Deans – Advancing business education through digital innovation, collaboration and connection with the workplace.

Steve Muylle, Associate Dean Digital Learning at Vlerick Business School, says: “We view DEC as a broad-based networking organisation in digital education. The digital learning space is evolving at a rapid pace, and this brings opportunities but also educational shifts. DEC aims to shape digital education standards and policies across schools and stimulate innovation via collectively addressing common challenges and sharing best practices. This fits with Vlerick’s ambition to further accelerate our digital learning innovation and to keep our finger on the pulse of digital education trends. We are highly committed to designing and developing qualitative online learning journeys and digital learning solutions that equal our physical learning experience. This membership will contribute to delivering even more impactful learning experiences to various audiences across our Masters, MBA, open and customised programmes.”
