The rapid global spread of COVID–19 has created numerous challenges for educational organizations of all levels around the world. Maritime Education and Training (MET) institutions are no exception and have faced major disruptions from the pandemic. Differing technological and organizational solutions have had to be quickly adapted in short timeframes in order to fill gaps and ensure continued teaching and learning. Although online education is nothing new, COVID-19 has accelerated the necessity for distributed learning, digital tools and infrastructure needed to not only cope, but excel in the restructuring of MET. In this article we present our experiences from the blended course offered to maritime bachelor students at our university in Norway through a case study. The findings from the study have revealed that although blended learning has helped continued education during the pandemic, it still has to overcome general as well as MET specific challenges to be successful in future. Considering the impact and challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic on MET, we further discuss the short-term responses and possible long-term solutions that can contribute to uninterrupted, high-quality learning for future MET. The use of emerging technologies for education, such as virtual reality (VR) and web-based training simulators, are likely to play an essential role in the future direction of MET.

Introduction/background: The impact of the pandemic on the management of medical facilities was, and still is, enormous - facilities had to change their thinking and approach to the treatment of patients, as not only did they have to treat patients, but also to protect them and medical staff from falling ill - as quickly as possible. One such measure was the organisation of vaccination centres. Aim of the paper: The main aim of the paper is to show the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the management of treatment facilities and to present the process of organising a vaccination point as part of the management in a selected treatment facility. Materials and methods: Analysis of legal acts, analysis of internal materials, interview. Results and conclusions: Compliance with the minimum requirements always influences the level of public confidence in vaccination, and the responsibility for carrying out vaccinations, reporting the adverse event following immunization - AEFI), i.e. the broadly understood safety of vaccinations, etc. always remains with those carrying out the vaccinations. Unfortunately, organizational problems were not avoided at the initial stage of starting the vaccination campaign. The problem concerned the delegation from individual wards of a physician designated to qualify patients presenting themselves for vaccination. However, taking appropriate actions on the part of Hospital Management and signing civil-law agreements with personnel vaccinating at weekends removed the personnel problem in this respect.
