( Pp. 149-153)

In the given article the problems of corruption in the educational institutions of the higher education is explored with taking into account the experience of its transformation into a virtual environment in a pandemic situation. The author of the article draws attention to the importance of this problem and notes the diversity of forms of corruption in the educational institutions. The author puts the special emphasis on the so called «soft forms of the corruption» that feed corruption mechanisms in education and have a negative influence on the quality of education. In this research the author argues on the positive and the negative aspects of the digitization of education, which must be taken into account in the process of organizing preventive work against corruption and bribery in the educational environment. Noting the importance of eliminating the causes of corruption in this area the main conclusion can be made is that the «hinderance» to the preventive activities,which still remain is the conciliatory attitude of the students. As the priority direction in the context of digitization remains the promotion of tolerance of corruption among the population, especially among students.
