Join Nick Golding as he talks to Gary Palmer, Managing Director, Oxford International Digital Institute & EFL UK. OI’s Digital Institute is one of THE great success stories of the pandemic in international HE. Launched in November 2020 as an online teaching and testing platform, it has attracted over 25,000 student subscribers already! Yes, that’s right: twenty-five thousand students from a standing start 12 months ago!

But, what is it? A teaching platform? Or a testing service? Or both? Find out the answers to these questions, and hear how it has grown from supporting a handful of partners to over 36 university partnerships in the UK, the EU and the US.

We will also examine the inevitable question: does OIDI’s meteoric growth represent a Covid blip or a portent of the post-pandemic future?
