Schools Connectivity Project


Description

This is a part of a large nationwide connectivity project for MOE. The project focuses on connecting more than 3000 remote un-serviced Internet via satellite VSAT, and enhance/upgrade the available connectivity in more than 19000 schools.
This project is strategic and very important to ensure that all schools in the Kingdom are linked to the MOE via the Internet to enable these schools to access and use the services provided by our major centralized systems: such as FARIS and NOOR and EduMap.
