The company said that by combining its many years of experience in employment and the Krojaceva School’s experience in education, it now provides “a complete package - from job hunting, through learning new skills, to personal and professional development.”
The school is known for modern and flexible learning methods that allow employees and individuals to develop the necessary skills in areas such as IT, design and marketing at any time and from any place. Currently, more than 130 business clients and 3,500 employees take advantage of these courses, and there are over 20,000 active students on the platform.
