Fostering talent growth and promoting interest in computer science for school students across Ireland
The EdUTec forum brings together tech companies and education professionals to foster talent growth and promote interest in computer science for school students.
Bridging the Gap
The forum aims to bridge the gap between the classroom and the tech industry. By leveraging the expertise and resources of companies, we provide unique opportunities for school students to cultivate their passion for technology and explore future career paths.
Inspiring Young Minds
We place a strong emphasis on promoting interest in computer science among school students. We organise events, competitions, and interactive sessions that inspire creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. By making computer science engaging and accessible, we seek to break down barriers and make it an inclusive field for all young minds.
