Summary
While COVID-19 may not have been entirely unanticipated in the epidemiological community, no one in the business community appears to have anticipated it (i.e., placed a probability on its happening) [1].At the present time COVID-19 is a global emergency. Countries around the world have suffered widespread disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic. Infamous force majeure events, occurring in the world, have contributed to modernizing the "online learning" form and developing an integration set of methods for teaching foreign students, and, as a consequence, led to the term "online education"(OE) which should be understood as an improved form of distance learning, involving: the use of presentations in the PowerPoint environment, testing programs and the development of electronic courses on various platforms as a single integration model. It can be said that a shift in priorities is being observed while evaluating the role of online learning in the educational process. Online learning appears to cease to perform an auxiliary function and gradually begins to play a leading role in the modern education system
