HITSA introduces Estonian e-education at e-Governance conference

HITSA introduces Estonian e-education at the international conference. This year the 6th e-Governance Conference “Giant leaps start with small steps” will be held online on 18 – 21 May 2020 at egovconference.ee.

"Estonia was relatively successful in switching into the distance mode of learning. Almost like we were prepared for it," said Mrs. Heli Aru-Chabilan, CEO of HITSA. "We could say that the crisis has been useful by evoking certain developments we have been talking in Estonia for years. The future of futurists suddenly became the reality for everyone when everything had to be transferred to remote learning almost overnight."

HITSA will be one of the exponents of the EXPO section of the conference giving an overview of how did schools in Estonia switched to remote learning and what are the success factors behind Estonian e-Education. In addition visitors to the conference, the EXPO section will get to know more about HITSA's new initiatives and projects. Find out more
