Abstract: This paper analyzes the web visibility of non-tertiary educational units in Romania, considering the factors that influence their online presence, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which underscored the importance of digital connectivity in education. The data used were retrieved from data.gov.ro, selecting characteristics such as property type and area of residency. The results obtained reveal a higher prevalence of websites in urban educational units and among the public ones. The Mann-Whitney U-test indicates newer websites in rural areas, highlighting recent digital advancements. These differences in digital presence reveal a potential gap in resource allocation and technological support between urban and rural educational units. These findings could provide a foundation for policymakers to support digital access among Romanian educational units.
