A new season of IT discipline certification from Kharkiv IT Cluster starts

6 Травня 2025

Kharkiv IT Cluster launches a new season of the project "Certification of IT Disciplines". This is an initiative that changes the approach to IT education: together with companies, we update the content of studies at universities - to meet the real needs of the market.

Why is this important for universities and companies?

• For universities, it is a chance to bring programs into practice, upgrade teachers and increase the value of their graduates.
• For businesses, it is a real impact on the training of personnel who may be in their teams tomorrow.

The project has already united 25+ leading IT companies and dozens of universities. This year we are expanding the partnership - join us.

Main benefits of certification

• Updating the content of disciplines with the participation of experts from T-companies.
• Improving the quality of teaching through practical orientation and modern approaches.
• Professional support from teachers and the opportunity to exchange experience with industry practitioners.
• Real impact on the training of future specialists who will meet the requirements of the modern IT market.

What problems does the project solve?

• The mismatch of students' knowledge with the expectations of employers.
• Low level of practical skills among graduates of IT programs.
• Lack of sustainable dialogue between universities and business.
• Insufficient number of practitioners among teachers.
