Abstract: If information and communication technologies will be used in providing distance education to children and adults that live in remote areas, a new perspective will open for them and for their community. The introduction of e-learning in rural areas will help not only the children whose school is far away, but also the adults who want to pursue higher education or specialization courses in different fields. The human resources from remote areas will have the possibility to learn new skills and competencies. These new qualifications acquired via e-learning will contribute to the economic development of the rural area and also to the development of the whole community. People will learn new useful things about agriculture and also about non-agricultural economic activities that can be implemented in their area.
