Chernihiv.IT ProsvITa 2020: summer edition
The world around us is changing, and adaptability is becoming a “must have” skill of our time. Given the quarantine restrictions, Chernihiv IT Cluster held the ProsvITa 2020 summer program online. Every Thursday during July and August, our companies' specialists shared their knowledge and experience with students and everyone interested in the IT industry. Many of those already working in the industry and wishing to deepen and broaden their range of competencies joined the relevant webinars. For some of our speakers, the online format brought new experience and the opportunity to improve their public speaking skills.

Why are Ukrainian IT specialists in such demand? Why do the realities of “entering IT” differ from the advertising of any courses? Where to start and where to develop in QA?

As always, the best part was the Q&A session.

Technologies and frameworks come and go almost every day. New programming languages appear from time to time. So what should you study? What competencies will be in demand when you graduate? Volodymyr revealed in detail the top 10 software development skills that remain popular and are in constant demand.
We are confident that the participants of our webinars received a lot of useful information and are now a level better oriented in the subject area and its modern realities. The Chernihiv.IT team continues to work on new training programs, so expect announcements of relevant events.
