SAP Austria Chief Calls for More Digital Education in Schools

The SAP Austria head demanded clearer cross-country regulations and more hours allocated for the age group of 11 to 14-year-olds at a press conference on Tuesday with State Secretary for Digitalization Alexander Pröll (ÖVP). Pröll emphasized that no one should be left behind in the expansion of digital skills. "Digital education is also location policy," said Pröll.

Digital Education: SAP Austria Collaborates with Universities and Schools

SAP Austria head Wagner emphasized the close networking of his software company with universities. However, they also work with vocational schools, and with the summer school of the University of Linz, there is another project aimed at students. Pröll emphasized that currently 63 percent of people in Austria have basic digital skills. The EU goal by 2030 is 80 percent, but in this country, they want to come close to 100 percent - and through "positive experiences," not with pressure and coercion.
