Stephen Hall, Executive Chairman of MEGA, said, “The encrypted cloud storage and chat provided by MEGA provides an excellent basis for continued teacher-student interaction, allowing effective remote learning.”
Many educational institutions have closed in order to limit the spread of Covid-19. MEGA’s platform provides the ideal features to allow students to continue their studies by connecting to teachers and teaching resources.

- Upload and share individual files or complete folders of teaching material;
- Open a MEGAdrop folder for students to upload their files to the teacher’s account;
- Have multi-party text, voice and video chats;*
- Enjoy the privacy of MEGA’s user-controlled end-to-end encryption;
