Due to the rapid development of technologies, the study of the problem of the implementation of online education acquires special importance. In Ukraine, this process is accompanied by separate challenges and opportunities that require detailed analysis. The main goal of the study is to study the prospects and problems of the development of online education in Ukraine through the analysis of qualitative and quantitative data collected from literary sources and surveys of participants. Therefore, the study uses a mixed approach to studying the problem. The date range of literature selection: from 2018 to 2024, including some works from 2015. The survey was conducted from January 2024 to May 2024 among 77 participants: 45 students and 32 teachers from various educational institutions of Ukraine. Therefore, the analysis showed that the implementation of the online system faces challenges, in particular, infrastructure problems, technical difficulties and energy interruptions are noticeable. Also, based on the survey, students noted a low level of motivation. The conclusions emphasize the importance of implementing innovative solutions in the online education support environment and offer various recommendations for further steps in the system of improving this approach. Thus, the study contains an important practical component for the development of the following mechanisms for improving the quality of online education in Ukraine.
