Academicians, students, and support staff are all working to accommodate this massive change. A survey research on the student, lecturer, and institutional readiness for online learning can help institutions better understand pre-COVID-19 perspectives. This study focuses on a case of Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) online education. This paper summary is one of a series of reports outlining higher education's readiness to move teaching and learning online to preserve and continue its educational mission during the current pandemic. Thus, questionnaire is distributed to all lecturers in UUM. The collected data is measured by Likert Scale of 1 to 5 and analyzed using IBM SPSS® software. The overall result has shown that lecturers in UUM are ready for online teaching during the lockdown period.

As such, more training is required by the lecturer especially related to technological and online learning tools.
