Abstract

Educational institutions have to train the next-generation workforce. Unfortunately, it is not easy for educational institutions and educators to adapt to this unpredictable and volatile labor world. Besides, students have become more demanding adopting a role close to a consumer. They also have embraced a lifelong learning strategy in «skills learning» through professional development as a common occupational norm. Remote laboratories have emerged as an educational tool in order to provide flexibility to practical training. However, they are going to turn into core elements in future educational approaches due to students' demands and technological advances.
