MS Wi-Fi in Schools
Microsoft Croatia, the Croatian Academic and Research Network – CARNET, and the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports connected 50 primary and secondary schools to the WiFi network. Thirty primary and 20 secondary schools across Croatia, with over 26,000 students, had the opportunity to use the WiFi network in their classrooms thanks to the successful implementation of the project.
This project provided better connectivity, which also meant entering the “world of knowledge.” This way, organizations, employees, and students in areas with poor connectivity gained access to the cloud. In addition to fast internet access, schools have achieved a high level of security and network connectivity control, as students could only access the network through their AII@edu IDs, which automatically granted them access to the school system and MS Office 365.
The project was fully funded by Microsoft Croatia and was conducted in cooperation with CARNET and the Ministry of Science, Education, and Sports as part of Microsoft's focus on providing Modern Technologies in day-to-day teaching, as well as helping younger generations become competitive in the labor market.
