The main goal of such a scientific and educational partnership is to give access to high-quality distance and mixed learning on the “Labster” platform, which provides free access to its interactive courses for youth of schools, colleges and universities in Ukraine.

“It is extremely important to expand the capabilities of our teachers as well as provide all Ukrainian pupils and students with effective means to master new technologies and scientific activities, regardless of who they aspire to become in the future – government officials, entrepreneurs, farmers or doctors. After completing their studies, young people should be ready to bring the acquired intellectual experience to the area where they will realize their potential, as science is the foundation for every field of activity. We are grateful to the “Labster” platform for providing access to the advanced “STEM-education” platform available anywhere and at any time for all Ukrainian schools, colleges and universities,” – commented the First Deputy Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine Andrii Vitrenko.

The unique offer of the “Labster” platform will allow more than 4.5 million pupils and students in every educational institution in Ukraine to study using world-renowned virtual scientific simulations from the “Labster” platform throughout the year. Teachers will be able to easily find interactive simulations useful for their educational disciplines among the 300 available on the platform and effectively implement them into the educational process, making learning more interesting and effective.

“It is a great honor for us to provide full support to Ukrainian teachers and students who continue their studies, despite the difficult circumstances in which they live. Enabling access to our high-quality interactive scientific learning platform in Ukraine is consistent with the “Labster” platform’s vision of enabling the next generation of scientists to change the world,” – emphasized “Labster” co-founder and CEO Michael Bodecker Jensen.

In addition to giving access to its catalog of simulations, the “Labster” platform will also provide professional development services and technical support for all teachers and students along with the issuance of relevant certificates.

Pay attention! On December 2, 2022, at 11:00 a.m., the webinar “Labster Platform: Using Virtual Simulations in Education” will be held. You can join the event by following the link.

For reference: the “Labster” platform is a world leader in the development of virtual educational simulators, thanks to which 5 million students and pupils of 3000 educational institutions in 70 countries of the world are already successfully studying. Virtual simulations on the platform are available for fields such as anatomy and physiology; biochemistry; biology; biotechnology; chemistry; earth science; microbiology; physics and others.

Previously, scientists worked in the laboratories of the Joint Research Center of the European Commission.
