Abstract
Educational hub refers to centres of excellence in higher education and research whose aims are to provide high-quality education for both national and international students to enhance the competitiveness of the country. These educational hubs provide an opportunity for knowledge exchanges and innovation in local regions through education and training. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, rapid shifts were made towards online learning in education around the world. Although the lockdown is over, remote learning will likely play an increasingly prominent role in education. The adoption of scaled remote learning during the pandemic provided evidence of the importance of online learning. They offer an insight into global society, helping prepare students for an increasingly interconnected world by facilitating links between different regions. Educational hubs can be tied to distance learning and are successful in attracting international students when offering a combination of distance learning methods and innovative programs. This paper examines the phenomenon of educational hubs in higher education for international education through online learning with digital technology. New opportunities for online and distance learning within the definition of educational hubs are analyzed, and three online and blended learning models that reflect the development of educational hubs based on COVID-19 conditions of education are offered. In addition, the successful cases and experiences of distance learning hubs in China and Iran in recent years are described.

Résumé
Le pôle éducatif fait référence aux centres d'excellence dans l'enseignement supérieur et la recherche dont les objectifs sont de fournir une éducation de haute qualité aux étudiants nationaux et internationaux afin d'améliorer la compétitivité du pays. Les hubs offrent une opportunité d'échanges de connaissances et d'innovation dans la région par le biais de l'éducation et de la formation. En réponse à la pandémie de COVID-19, des changements rapides ont été opérés vers l'apprentissage en ligne dans l'éducation dans le monde entier. Bien que le confinement soit terminé, l'apprentissage à distance jouera probablement un rôle de plus en plus important dans l'éducation. L'adoption de l'apprentissage à distance à grande échelle pendant la pandémie a prouvé l'importance de l'apprentissage en ligne. L'impact sera différent pour chaque élève. Les hubs peuvent également offrir un aperçu de la société mondiale, aider à préparer les étudiants à un monde de plus en plus interconnecté, ainsi qu'à faciliter les liens entre différentes régions. Dans le contexte de la COVID-19, il n'y a plus de présence sociale dans les universités. Les centres éducatifs sont liés à l'apprentissage à distance et réussissent à attirer des étudiants internationaux lorsqu'ils offrent une combinaison de méthodes d'apprentissage à distance et de programmes innovants. Cet article examine le phénomène des pôles éducatifs dans l'enseignement supérieur pour l'éducation internationale par l'apprentissage en ligne avec la technologie numérique. De nouvelles opportunités d'apprentissage en ligne et à distance dans le cadre de la définition des centres éducatifs sont analysées, et trois modèles d'apprentissage en ligne et mixtes qui reflètent le développement de centres éducatifs basés sur les conditions d'éducation COVID-19 sont proposés. En outre, les cas et expériences réussis des pôles d'apprentissage à distance en Chine et en Iran ces dernières années sont décrits.
