COVID-19 has gained widespread acceptance, which has increased the use of online learning methodologies and procedures. This paper investigates how students evaluate the quality of arranging student extracurricular programmes using an online method instead of a face-to-face approach when comparing the two approaches. University leadership, and students from economically and geographically disadvantaged backgrounds, according to the author, are all interested in supporting an online approach to higher education. Student affairs units at the UiTM Cawangan Terengganu performed a series of surveys to examine student leadership among university students between 2020 and March 2022 to understand their viewpoints better. Although online implementation has various advantages over conventional face-to-face education, students believe that the extracurricular program's quality is inferior to that of traditional face-to-face instruction, particularly in strengthening their leadership and decision-making abilities. One of the issues that students are experiencing when it comes to online learning is their incapacity to pick information and evaluate its trustworthiness and their inability to discern essential information from irrelevant information to assure high-quality student leadership through extracurricular programmes. After conducting a poll, it was determined that an additional study into the effects of digitalisation on the quality of student leadership should be carried out.
