EU Code Week in Serbia

27 FEBRUARY AT 12.00 | HALL 'ALT'

EU Code Week was organised in Serbia with many events connected to programming and IT. Over 160 events enabled students, in primary and secondary education, to learn about the world of programming. When we take this number into account Serbia is at the tenth place out of 44 countries that participated and thanks to many teachers and speakers Code Week was a great success.

Čaba works as a teacher at the Polytechnic school in Subotica and is a Code Week ambassador in Serbia. His goal is to promote the use of ICT and the skills that are needed today and to educate and share his knowledge and experience in IT and programming.
