Share of people using the internet daily in Romania, by formal education

The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the frequency in which people with a low (At most lower secondary education), medium (Upper secondary and post-secondary non-tertiary education), and high (Tertiary education) formal education level use the internet. In Romania, 91 percent of people with a high formal education used the internet daily in 2020. At the same time only 63 percent of people with medium formal education responded that they used the internet daily. Merely 41 percent of people with lower formal education indicated that they used the internet daily, 22 percent less than people with medium formal education and 50 percent less than people with high formal education.
Since 2014, the share of people in all three groups that used the internet daily increased. The share of people with a low formal education level increased by 26 percent. The share of people with medium formal education increased the fastest with an increase of 33 percent since 2014. The share of people with higher education increased the slowest with 11 percent.
