The platform contains materials for schoolchildren, students, parents, and teachers. They cover all levels of education — from secondary to higher education, including vocational. It provides information on admission to Ukrainian educational institutions, the possibility of studying remotely or externally, and preparation for the National Multisubject Test (NMT), External Independent Testing (EIT) and State Final Examination (SFE).
The site also offers language resources, including courses in Ukrainian and Crimean Tatar, in particular for preschool children and students in grades 5-6. Additionally, specialised online courses on the history of Crimea, its culture and reintegration are available.
Separate sections are devoted to the recognition of learning outcomes, professional development of future civil servants and the formation of a talent pool of teachers to work in the de-occupied territories. The platform is constantly updated in line with changes in government policy and the regulatory framework, and new materials are added by the project team on a regular basis.
The resource was initiated by the Mission of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, the State Institution ‘Ukrainian Institute for Education Development’. The NGO ‘Almenda Centre for Civic Education’. It also includes the Association for Innovative and Digital Education (AIDE)).
