DESCRIPTION:In 2016\, when police education in Iceland was moved to a unive
 rsity level\, to the University of Akureyri (UNAK)\, increased importance 
 was placed on educating police students on diversity. Around same time the
  Icelandic Police continuous education centre (MSL)\, which belongs to the
  Icelandic National Commissioner of the Police\, introduced such trainings
  as well. Ever since\, police students take mandatory courses on subjects 
 as diversity\, hate crime and human rights at UNAK\, and police officers a
 re offered short courses on diversity and hate crime provided by MSL. Due 
 to Covid-19 pandemic and the fact that on-line education is offered to pol
 ice students in Iceland\, more and more students now only take classes onl
 ine. This paper will discuss what are the pros and cons with teaching onli
 ne instead of face-to-face interaction about such a delicate subject\, as 
 diversity in the context of policing.  I will debate questions such as\, d
 oes online course on diversity deliver knowledge to police students\, wors
 e or better\, than in a classroom setting and how has online teaching chan
 ged the way diversity is addressed in police education? Furthermore\, how 
 is it possible to follow up on such trainings in contemporary COVID-19 pan
 demic when student-teacher personal interaction is impossible? This paper 
 bases partly on survey on police students’ views on diversity\, which ha
 s been submitted to new police students in 2018\, 2019 and 2020 and partly
  on qualitative research on hate crime victims in Iceland experiences of p
 olice in 2019 – 2021.
