This paper aims to explore the challenges of managing MA Arts and Culture Enterprise, a global post-graduate arts management course in a transnational context. Pandemic regulations and global travel restrictions related to COVID-19 were challenges for this blended learning course, which caused huge disruptions to in-person teaching. The tightening control on the internet in certain countries and political uncertainty can make online teaching challenging. Nevertheless, tackling these challenges offers opportunities to develop a new model of blended teaching, which can respond to the changing world.
