Creating the 21st century spirit of education
Enabling students to develop essential skills for learning and critical thinking
ARNOS is the biggest online educational institute in Greece that provides educational services, since 1985. The website was launched in 2000 and since then it is a living cell, where teachers create e-learning content for the students according to the Greek curriculum, supporting more than 15,000 free primary students per day and approximately 5,000 subscribers-students per year. In the last decade, ARNOS has offered e-learning services to everyone, focusing on New Technologies and Practical Pedagogies. They have created "Athena" Ecumenical e-School, a non-profit online school for primary education (with infinite free access to its material) and for the educational R&D, focusing on the 21st century's Practical Pedagogies.

The challenge
- Locate an online educational platform that offered complete communication capabilities
- Offer comprehensive educational materials to students
- Introduce and promote Ed-Tech pedagogies in the Greek educational landscape, making them widely recognized and accepted
Our challenge was to find a full online educational solution that offers communication, educational material completeness and is dynamic. Furthermore, our challenge was to diffuse our Ed-Tech pedagogies to the Greek market and make them recognizable.
The solution
ARNOS Online Education has integrated CYPHER's LMS in its curriculum from the beginning of the academic year 2016-2017 and now it’s being used by more than 5000 students and 150 educators.
ARNOS educators and students have already been acquainted with such solutions, because of our previous similar actions. However, our executives supported our educators through live courses and video tutorials, focusing on their CPD (Continuing Professional Development).
