The issue of knowledge creation and application through tutoring has evolved into the primary source of competitive advantage among colleges and a crucial element for success. In a turbulent world full of competitiveness, educational institutions and establishments strive to continuously provide excellence through top-notch education, international partnerships, collaborations, acknowledgments, and accreditations as well as updated technological tools such as e-learning platforms and online labs/workshops, constant investment in each person’s human capital. It is hoped that this would improve people’s knowledge, abilities, experiences, and cultural capital. Our digital lives have advanced quickly over the past two years to the point where living online and offline are now equally important. The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the significance of sustaining education while taking into consideration the undeniable technological advances. This chapter adopts a descriptive/narrative methodology approach. As a result, it can be concluded that, if implemented properly, virtual collaboration and success will become essential skills that professionals across almost all sectors would master. Hence, upcoming research could include the role of the metaverse in education on another aspect of the SGDs like “no poverty.”
