Tekwill in Every School: One Year on

Tekwill in Every School is a project that brings future professions closer to students and teachers across the country, laying the groundwork for the transformation of education in Moldova. During its first year, the most revolutionary educational project in the country involved 20,000 students and 590 teachers from 234 schools in all regions of the country.

Thus, the school curriculum was complemented with optional courses that prepare young people for the professions of the future: Graphic Design, Web Design and Development, C/C++ Algorithm Programming, Artificial Intelligence, and Mobile Applications. Tekwill in Every School was designed to meet the new challenges and needs in IT. The program helped create a space in which secondary and high school students could have access to technology and become familiar with future high-demand specialties. Every child studying one or more Tekwill subjects has the opportunity to develop skills and competences for the professions of the future. Supported by the Ministry of Education and Research, the project helped upgrade the curricular offer so it could teach new digital skills.

Development of the course was made possible through the joint financial efforts of the private sector, the country’s citizens and diaspora, as well as the external development partners – USAID, Sweden, EU4Moldova and UNDP Moldova. Another 100 schools will be selected within the project for the 2022-2023 academic year.
