The Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine announces the launch of the “ReFormEd” program — a practical internship program for professionals from various fields who wish to contribute to changes in education.

Registration and participation

Registration for the program begins on October 21 and will continue until November 3. Participating in “ReFormEd” is an opportunity not just to observe changes but to be a driving force behind them, as reforms are driven by people!

The goal of this collaboration is to implement the MoES strategic plan “Education of Winners.”
