EdTech to be Major Discussion Topics at GESS and GETEX in Dubai.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

UAE schools and universities invest in digital student records, safe and secure campuses and collaboration tools to transform learning.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

UAE schools and universities that are digitally transforming are supporting the global education technology market to top US$40 billion by 2022, industry experts announced ahead of major educational events being held in the UAE.<\/p>\n

At GESS Dubai<\/a> (February 26 to 28) and GETEX<\/a> (April 17 to 19), education companies and thought leaders will share best practices in digitisation enabling future learning.<\/p>\n

Digital innovation and technology integration are also key pillars in the school inspection reports conducted by the Abu Dhabi Department of Education<\/a> and the Knowledge and Human Development Authority of Dubai<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Connected campuses, digital student records, cybersecurity systems, tablets, digital collaboration tools, and high-performance research and development labs are transforming learning experiences.<\/p>\n

The global education technology market is expected to grow at 18% CAGR to reach US$40 billion by 2022, according to Valustrat<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the UAE\u2019s student population grows, and in support of UAE Vision 2021 goals<\/a> of a first-rate education system, the UAE government is allocating AED 10 billion<\/a>, or 17 % of its national budget to education<\/a>, among the region\u2019s highest percentage.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe UAE\u2019s strong investment in education technology shows that schools and universities are leading innovations to make campuses safer and more efficient, to enhance learning experiences, and to prepare students for the future workforce,\u201d said Andrew Calthorpe, CEO, at UAE-based IT infrastructure and information management consultancy Condo Protego, which specialises in education.<\/p>\n

In the UAE, Condo Protego works closely with leading UAE educational institutions on their Digital Transformation, including inter-campus connectivity and information standardisation, hybrid cloud virtual learning environments and personalised apps.<\/p>\n

\u201cSchools, universities and organisations with professional development need to ensure that digital technology is meeting educational purposes,\u201d added Calthorpe. \u201cHyper-connected campuses can ensure students can easily access educational content. Mobile apps on the cloud can replace textbooks and provide immersive learning. Collaboration can make project work faster and easier.\u201d<\/p>\n

Condo Protego is seeing strong UAE educational demand for Dell EMC Campus Networking Solutions<\/a> for ensuring campus connectivity, and VMware Workspace ONE<\/a> for app virtualisation for secure access from any mobile device at any time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
