Abstract

This study investigates faculty perceptions of the drivers and challenges to HyFlex (HybridFlexible) delivery in post-secondary education. Based on responses from 106 faculty members across several academic schools and credential programs at a polytechnic institute in North America, the study outlines key challenges associated with HyFlex delivery. The results indicate that faculty generally recognize that students value this delivery model for its flexibility and ability to accommodate diverse learning preferences. Respondents ranked academic integrity, effective assessment practices, and accommodating diverse learning needs as the three most significant challenges in HyFlex delivery. In contrast, access to technology and workforce readiness were identified as the least significant challenges. Overall, the findings suggest that successful implementation of HyFlex requires a balanced approach that promotes flexibility while maintaining pedagogical integrity and supporting both faculty and student success in multi-access learning environments.
