Education is often considered the basis of a nation’s wealth. However, today there are still many areas in the world where geographic conditions do not allow for a fully accessible education system. Satellite connects even the most remote communities to schools and universities in metropolitan areas. Offering a curriculum or internet access via satellite creates incredible opportunities for students and teachers alike.

Education via satellite allows governments to deliver the same level of education for students in both urban and rural areas. ND SatCom implemented one of the largest distance education VSAT networks in the EMEA region: Students and teachers in more than 5,300 remote Turkish schools now access the internet via satellite to blend their traditional curriculum with the worldwide web. Our satellite network routers and antenna systems also support students in virtual campus settings in the Middle East with database access, live broadcasts of lectures, and video conferences with their instructors. Satellite was, in these cases, not only the most cost-effective means of communication, but also the only one available due to the lack of terrestrial infrastructure in rural areas.
