The Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine has opened applications for participation in the pilot project “Money Follows the Teacher”, aimed at improving the quality of education through financial support for teachers.
Applications can be submitted via the “Vector” platform. To apply, teaching staff must:
- complete profile verification on the platform;
- update information about their educational institution;
- add details about the classes they teach;
- confirm their identity via BankID or a qualified electronic signature.
Once the institution confirms the submitted information, the teacher gains access to the application form.
