International North South EdTech Conference and expo.
Skills development in the era of the fourth industrial revolution is evolving worldwide as emergent educational environments demand the adoption of 21st-century skills, higher-level ICT capacities and digital technologies. The education and training sector is facing a period of disruption initiated by an emerging plethora of private online academies using advanced digital online systems. Industry is following suit with many companies implementing their own on line learning systems.
The 2019 International North South EdTech Conference and expo aims to bring together leading education and training practitioners, educational managers, researchers and international experts to share their experiences and research regarding their application of educational technologies and the impact thereof in the classroom. The conference will provide participants with opportunities to present and discuss their most recent innovations, trends and concerns, the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted in the fields of information and communication technology and digital technologies.
Delivering the keynote address at this year’s conference, Western Cape Premier Alan Winde speaking to Smart Cities and the dialogue between industry and academia towards the development of a shared digital skills agenda.
