The most important points which the Faculty and Vakoms created, implemented, and organized together are:
Courses were founded in 2009 with the aim of supporting the younger generation and helping them gain knowledge for free.
The classes are conducted by employees of IT companies who have real experience and are able to teach and transfer knowledge to young specialists on a free basis.

For many years, Vakoms has sponsored the annual FOSS LVIV conference
Last year, in October, Vakoms helped open an IoT laboratory for students of technical faculties. The IoT laboratory is equipped with new Mac computers and development boards for designing IoT solutions. There is also an engineering workplace for the assembly of electronics and a 3D printer for creating the design of device cases and the ability to switch to distance learning quickly.
