Teaching and learning in international and thus intercultural contexts places special demands on the conception of trainings. The same holds true for online or distance learning. Taken together, both factors – training in an intercultural and online context – pose specific didactic and technical challenges. Against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic all international training programmes under the umbrella of the Higher Education Management Programme at FH Münster –University of Applied Sciences had to be held online. In the article on hand we share our experiences with online training for actors in the higher education area from developing and emerging countries and discuss its specific demands along the lines of common criteria for effective learning.
Higher Education Institutions are facing more and more external rules and requirements, most of which are concerning structures and processes of Higher Education Management or Quality Management.

The article on hand provides definitions of different formats for professional development and consulting services and deals with the special demands of international cooperation in this field. As an example, the Higher Education Management Programme of Münster University of Applied Siences (FH Münster) in Germany will be introduced, which respects the specialties of international and intercultural cooperation in the area of professional development and consulting.
