Online education will continue in Saudi Arabia even after COVID-19 pandemic ends, as it is important to the Kingdom's education system, Minister of Education Hamad Al-Sheikh said in a statement.

 

During a meeting with Al-Sheikh, Hussam bin Abdul-Wahab, head of Education & Training Evaluation Commission (ETEC), said that online education will be a successful project in the future.

 

He indicated that Saudi Arabia will continue to invest in online education during or after COVID-19, as it is considered a qualitative leap for digitalizing the education in the Kingdom.

This came during a meeting held on Dec. 5 between Al-Sheikh and the board chairman of ETEC, Dr. Ahmed Al-Issa, to discuss the coordination between the two authorities in order to achieve the Kingdom's strategic goals in accordance with Vision 2030.
