For five years, Lviv IT Cluster has been actively promoting technical education in Lviv, creating new educational programs, laboratories, spaces, and organizing interesting lectures and projects in collaboration with member companies. Through common efforts, we modernize all educational sectors of the city, including secondary school, vocational education, and higher education institutions. The quantity of Cluster\u2019s educational programs grows every year, and, accordingly, the need for expert assistance and quality characterization of present and future initiatives arises. As a result, this fall, Lviv IT Cluster is launching the Education Committee.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Among them are the IT companies and education sector professionals, including heads of educational institutions and education departments of Lviv City Council and Lviv IT Cluster, who have been actively working on developing IT education in Lviv.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
