The recognition by Ghana's Ministry of Education serves as a validation to Edmodo's exceptional quality in facilitating learning.

During the launch event of the partnership,Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh (HON),Minister for Education of Ghana said that Edmodo was launched as an online portal to serve different school levels,where teachers,students and parents can all meet with each other at a click of a button. He said he hopes Edmodo will play an essential role in the transformation of the country's education,and will close the gap between the haves and have-nots as it is available to all students.

Dr. Simon Leung,Vice Chairman of NetDragon,commented that the company has been cooperating with Ghana for some time. Back in 2019,the two parties had several close exchanges and signed a memorandum of cooperation on digitalized education. This partnership is the fruition of the exchanges between the two sides earlier. NetDragon is an internet company focused on technology and is dedicated to promoting digitalized education globally. Over the years,it has brought high-quality education technology solutions to countries along the Belt and Road and introduced to them abundant teaching resources according to their needs,in a bid to promote global education equality.

In recent years,NetDragon has been active in expanding its education business to overseas markets under the Belt and Road Initiative and has been well received by a growing number of African countries,which present huge demand for quality education resources. The partnership with Ghana comes after Edmodo was chosen by Egypt's Ministry of Education as the designated online learning platform for its K-12 education system earlier this year following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Going forward,the company is anticipated to see more of such large-scale roll-outs in other African countries.
