The Ukrainian Startup Foundation has announced the launch of the 100 Million Students international education project in Ukraine. The initiative is being implemented by the Thunderbird School of Global Management in partnership with Arizona State University (ASU) and aims to provide free access to modern education for millions of people around the world. 

In Ukraine, the program focuses on supporting youth, women, veterans, internally displaced persons and anyone seeking to expand their career opportunities.

The 100 Million Students program is one of the largest educational projects in the world. It offers free courses in entrepreneurship and innovation in 40 languages, including Ukrainian. With the launch of the program in Ukraine, Ukrainians will have the opportunity to receive training and internationally recognized certificates that provide new career prospects and expand their professional growth horizons. 

The educational program includes three levels of certifications, which are adapted for students with different levels of training. The training covers key aspects of entrepreneurship, leadership, innovative thinking and global management, enabling participants to develop the skills necessary to succeed in the modern economy. 

The program is designed so that each participant can learn at their own pace. It is focused not only on starting a business, but also on developing non-profit initiatives and introducing innovations in the public sector.

The training covers 19 key topics that are essential for entrepreneurial success. The main focus is on the following areas:

• artificial intelligence
• strategic planning;
• accountability, transparency, and intellectual property;
• building a team for business development.

Successful graduates of the program will be able to apply for a scholarship to study at the Thunderbird School of Global Management.
