How to get training within the program
This programme provides an opportunity to gain valuable knowledge and skills that will help you effectively use modern technology in your professional activities. With the support of the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, participants will be able to access advanced techniques and tools that will contribute to the development of their organizations.
1. Leave a request
Fill out the form and tell us about your motivation — what you expect from participating and why you or your team should be among the chosen ones. This is your chance to present yourself. Please note: the application does not guarantee automatic enrollment.
2. Wait for the answer
We process all applications in turn. So the later the start date, the later you can get an answer.
Be patient with us and wait for a letter from our team — check all folders, including spam.
3. Complete registration
Fill out the form that will come to you in the letter. This data will help us better organize the process and communication. This is a necessary step for the final registration.
Yes, participation is free thanks to funding from the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The main thing is to meet the conditions of participation.
Is it mandatory to work in an IT company, public sector or NGO?
Yes, it is a must. At the time of starting your studies, you must be officially employed in such a company.
Is technical experience necessary?
No. The course is designed for all leaders, regardless of their technical background. You will not be writing code, but you will learn to understand technology at a level necessary for making strategic decisions and managing a team.
Is it necessary to have a team under my command?
Not necessarily. The course is for people in leadership positions: those who influence strategy, processes, or decisions in an organization. If you set the direction, make proposals to management, or coordinate work between teams, this course is for you, even if you don't formally have a team under your supervision.
Can I join if I already use some AI tools?
Yes, and that will be a plus. The course will give you a systematic view of technology: not just a set of tools, but frameworks for evaluation, implementation, and decision-making. Even if you are already familiar with ChatGPT or other tools, you will come out of the course with a clearer understanding of how to use them strategically.
Will there be practice during classes?
Yes, all our trainings are built with active practical tasks so that you can implement the knowledge gained on the next working day.
Will I get a certificate after the mini-course?
Yes, after successful completion of the mini-course, you will receive a certificate. To do this, you need to be present at all classes, do assignments and actively participate in discussions.
