Training new talents for the ICT sector - RIT Kosovo (A.U.K) TDI - GIZ
About the TechUp project
The Employment Tech Up project addresses a skills gap identified by an analysis conducted by the association STIKK of ICT companies in Kosovo. The findings of their analysis show an ever-growing demand for highly skilled ICT workers. Together with the American University in Kosovo - Training and Development Institute (AUK TDI), the TechUP project was launched in Kosovo with the support of the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH on behalf of the German Government. The project goal was to address youth in order to create a pool of highly skilled programmers, while increasing employment in the ICT market in Kosovo through professional training and internships. The target audience were university students or recent undergraduates with degrees in ICT, and high school students in the last year of their studies.
