People in Belgium participating in online learning activities, by formal education
The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people with a low, medium, and high formal education level. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
In 2020, only 18 percent of users with low formal education in Belgium used the internet to participate in online learning activities. Among people with medium formal education the share was nine percent higher, amounting to 27 percent. Users with a high degree of formal education were most likely to have used the internet to access online learning content on the Internet, with 48 percent.
