Abstract

The importance of e-education in the modern world is not debatable as sufficiently increases the auditorium and improves the students per teacher ratio. It also may serve the re-educational needs of a state and therefore should be recognized as an important part of public services that government provides via e-channels. The digital intelligence concept required building e-government is also based on educating citizens to be able to consume, process and formulate a feedback to government via IT channels. Unfortunately the lack of a general approach to the system in majority of states (countries) holds back the process of implementing such e-educational services. In order to bridge this gap the paper defines first areas of interest followed by expanded list of requirements needed to unify and improve such services. The paper also proposes technical solutions in form of hybrid SaaS (cloud) and the id-cards based identification system that satisfy all earlier stated requirement including reducing the cost of implementation.
