The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people of different age groups. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
In 2020, 50 percent of internet users in Estonia between 25 and 34 used the internet to take part in online learning activities. Among 35-to-44-year-olds this share decreased to 39 percent. Among the other age groups, 55-to-64-years-olds were least likely do take part in online learning activities. Overall, however the share of people using the internet for this purpose increased since 2015 across all age groups.
