Abstract: This paper evaluates the stage of development of the e-learning system in Romania compared to other EU Member States, in the perspective of the newly proposed Europe 2020 strategy for a “smart, sustainable and inclusive growth”. Official statistics are essential in order to monitor these comparisons. Although Romania’s analyzed indicators are not at the level of other EU countries, a modest but increasing uptake of e-Learning services over the past few years can be observed. However, Romania still has major shortcomings in the field of e-Learning, our country being placed at the lower end of the EU-27 ranking in almost all statistics. As an EU Member State since 2007, Romania has to reduce its gap in the shortest possible time. The first steps were taken through implementing e-Learning projects and defining the barriers that stand in the way of an information society for everyone.
