The development of soft skills has become an essential component of modern education, particularly in online and distance learning environments. Soft skills, including communication, teamwork, problem-solving, adaptability, and emotional intelligence, are critical for personal and professional success. This study explores the methodological foundations for effectively cultivating these competencies in virtual learning contexts. It emphasizes learner-centered pedagogy, the use of interactive technologies, experiential learning, reflective practices, and structured feedback mechanisms. The research highlights how thoughtfully designed online learning environments can enhance not only cognitive skills but also socio-emotional growth, preparing learners for the challenges of the digital and globalized workforce.
