Abstract

The level of education of a nation's people determines how economically and socially successful that nation will be. Therefore, it is crucial to find strategies to guarantee that education is of a high standard, accessible to everyone, and affordable using the most up-to-date technologies available. Over the past 20 years, the ICT sector has experienced rapid expansion. ICT has impacted several industries' dynamics as well as how individuals interact and work in society. Both at work and at home, internet usage has substantially increased. ICT has the power to remove obstacles and improve educational outcomes in every country. It can be used as a strategy to get around problems including cost, a lack of teachers, poor educational quality, and time and distance constraints. In recent decades, India has focused on expanding its educational sector. Higher education is the main driver of India's competitiveness and employment development. There is a severe shortage of skilled labour. There are social, cultural, time, and geographic obstacles for those who want to pursue higher education. Innovation in ICT might be able to solve this problem.
