Abstract (max. 250 words):
Hungarian folk dance teacher training in Vojvodina.

Even during the pandemic, continuous dance education did not stop at either the university or lower levels. The realization of the learning support system used by the Hungarian Dance University was implemented in a cross-border educational program. The length of the course is 3 and a half years, in which the teaching takes place in 8 occasion on Saturdays and Sundays in 15 lessons in each "school year". A solution had to be found for this practical part because of the border locks. Using the Course Garden learning support system, we successfully resolved consultations and other preparational opportunities between consultation dates. The papers and other reports submitted by the participants thus received a direct evaluation, preparing the next material. The number of participants in the online course was 70. I performed the administrative tasks and I coordinated the whole system - together with the teachers, organizers and students. I would like to present the process of this in my presentation.
