Hybrid Program

The Hybrid Program blends traditional and online education and targets schools that wish to introduce innovative and attractive learning methods into their curricula, as well as supplement the program with additional resources. Community leaders wishing to organize Armenian Studies classes for their community members are also welcome to apply. An entire classroom can sign up for any of the courses offered by AVC. Following a consensus between AVC and school administration, the local teacher and AVC online instructor collaborate throughout the course to help students achieve maximum results through this attractive method of learning.

This method was first introduced at the Ohannesian Armenian School in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates in 2009. Since then, the method has been successfully used in Armenian communities and schools stretching from Latin America to Georgia and from Canada to Russia, reaching an impressive number of 18 participant schools and communities.

Who Can Apply

  • Schools that wish to introduce innovative and attractive learning methods into their curricula, as well as supplement the program with additional resources.
  • Community leaders wishing to organize Armenian Studies classes for their community members are also welcome to apply.
