(TU Delft Structural Integrity & Composites) Schuurman, M.J. (TU Delft Structural Integrity & Composites) De Breuker, R. (TU Delft Aerospace Structures & Computational Mechanics) van Staalduinen, J.P. (TU Delft Information Management) Department Aerospace Structures & Materials Date 2018 Abstract In this paper, the transition from teaching on-campus to an online audience consisting of working professionals in an Aerospace Engineering context is described. The differences in the learner’s needs and the transition in teaching methods and style that is required from teaching staff is discussed. This is illustrated by two case studies: for Smart Structures and for Air Safety Investigation. Recommendations on how universities can contribute to Life Long Learning are given.
