Representatives from the management of the education office of Kurbin and the vocational schools of &#8220;Kolin Gjoka&#8221; in Lezha attended the donation ceremony. The project representatives handing over the donation were Dafina Olluri as the representative of ODK, and Besyana Hysa, representative of\u00a0 AIS.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; line-height: 18.0pt;\">The project aims at increasing youth vocational skills in Albania and Kosovo in the ICT sector. ODK and AIS have created a platform in the Albanian language, called Kursori. The platform offers free online courses and training for local young people .<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; line-height: 18.0pt;\">The technology sector is the biggest employer in the EU and the region. Employment in this sector involves decent salaries and jobs can be done online, with the young people having no need to immigrate. IT knowledge and skills guarantee safe and decent employment. ICT skills are also necessary for professionals in sectors like tourism, services, trade, and industry. The project in Albania focused in Lezha and Kurbin, given the concentration of population\u00a0\u00a0 in this area, the need for better use of resources, and the human and natural potential that the area offers. Kurbin and Lezha are two municipalities that, thanks to their geographic position and potential for tourism, offer convincing opportunities for co-operation and exchange with Kosovo. The project aims at enabling 500 young people from these five schools to complete at least one of the online training programmes on the Kursori platform. This empowers them in the labour market. The project shall be completed by March 2020. The students of the beneficiary schools shall be assisted during online training even by technical instructors from the Project. The platform is open to everyone. In addition to training, the young students will also be able to benefit from joint events and exchanges with the computer science students from &#8220;Ukshin Hoti&#8221; University,\u00a0 and students from the Business Faculty of &#8220;Haxhi Zeka&#8221; University in Peja.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/obdHGiOZg44\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\"
