Description
Summary:This short country report, a result of larger Information for Development Program (infoDev)-supported survey of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in education in Africa, provides a general overview of current activities and issues related to ICT use in education in the country. Chad and its partners in development have adopted a 10-year strategy called Education and Training in Liaison with Employment (EFE), and the process for setting up a national ICT policy is underway. Most of Chad's initiatives involve training and continued education through ICT. Although distance training is difficult, it is not impossible. New goals and initiatives are currently being explored by the national Ministry of Education to set up programmes to benefit both teachers and students. The main obstacle to overcome is the financial need.
