Country at intersection of Eastern Europe and West Asia is introducing a national learning management system for its 600,000 K-12 learners
RICHMOND HILL, ON, Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Edsby®, an innovative vendor of K-12 education software, has been selected by the Ministry of Education, Science and Youth of the country of Georgia as the winning vendor for a national learning management system (LMS) initiative. The project seeks to transform education across the country through the implementation of advanced digital learning.
The contract for Learning Systems Solutions and Support is part of Georgia's I2Q initiative, a six-year, multifaceted education reform supported in part by the World Bank.
Edsby's selection follows a rigorous international Quality-Based Selection (QBS) process. Edsby was awarded the contract with local Georgia technology integrator partner Orient Logic.
Edsby, a leading K-12 social learning platform, is to be piloted beginning next year across Georgian public schools to support localized, flexible curriculum, interactive teaching methodologies, and active learning pedagogies. The platform is ultimately to provide a national system for teachers, students, and parents to engage in blended learning, with support for synchronous, asynchronous, and activity-based learning paths.
"We are pleased to collaborate with the Georgian Ministry of Education, Science, and Youth and Orient Logic on this high impact project," said John Myers, CEO of Edsby. "The I2Q initiative aligns perfectly with Edsby's mission to empower educators, students and parents with cutting-edge learning technologies. Our platform will enhance Georgia's educational landscape by providing a flexible, scalable, and engaging system that fosters a culture of lifelong learning."
"This project represents an exciting step forward in transforming education in our country. In partnering with Edsby, we are equipping our students, parents and teachers with world class tools to thrive in the 21st century," said Alexander Bagratia, CEO of Orient Logic. "This new national LMS is to enable personalized learning pathways and provide robust support for educators and families. We look forward to the positive impact on our students' education."
Georgia's I2Q project focuses on improving educational outcomes, promoting inclusion, and fostering innovation. I2Q aims to foster quality teaching and learning in Georgian schools and includes a focus on localized, student-centered curricula. The implementation of the Edsby LMS will support Georgia's strategic objectives of raising educational standards, creating equitable access to quality education, and preparing students for future success.
When fully deployed, the national Georgian learning management system will be comparable in size to Edsby's contract with the New Zealand Ministry of Education, another national deployment of Edsby to 800,000 K-12 learners and their parents, and the country's educators.
