Central European Chapter Formation

In 1995, a group of professionals from several Central European countries met at ED-MEDIA 95--World Conference on Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia in Austria and discussed the establishment of a Central European Chapter (CEC) of AACE. It was clear that this chapter was needed and should be formed to promote educational technology research and development in the region. Thus, the CEC was established.
