Leaders from schools around the country of Georgia gathered in the capital Tbilisi to see the country’s new K-12 LMS, Edsby

Staff from the Georgian Ministry of Education, Science and Youth (MESY) hand picked 60 education leaders across the country to review capabilities of its new Edsby-based national K-12 learning management system (LMS).

Organizers fielded many questions that showed attendees understood and appreciated the scope of the new platform. Many attendees were surprised how comprehensive Edsby was. Family engagement aspects of Edsby and teacher capacity building resonated in particular.
