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.
