National Online Learning Day

National Online Learning Day is dedicated to making the online learning system accessible to everyone. It is on September 15th. The development of the internet has significantly changed how we access information. Educational materials are now available on many internet resources, including free videos, public lectures, and specialized courses, allowing everyone to acquire new professional skills without leaving home.

History

National Online Learning Day was officially launched in 2016, though the history of online learning itself begins much earlier. The widespread adoption of the internet at the end of the 20th century paved the way for the development of online education. In 1994, the first Compu High School opened, offering online courses to its students.

Each year, the number of training sites has grown, with specialists and educators creating paid courses that enable students to master a specific profession. The use of webcams and modern website functionalities has made online learning not only accessible but also convenient.

By 2015, statistics indicated that 6 million schoolchildren and students were participating in at least one online course.
