Ukrenergo’s contribution to the development of educational initiatives in 2022-2025 amounted to over UAH 65 million, the system operator announced on its Telegram channel on Monday.
“Our company actively cooperates with many higher and pre-higher education institutions. In particular, these are the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, Dnipro and Lviv Polytechnic Institutes, Vinnytsia National Technical University, and Kharkiv National Technical University of Municipal Economy named after O. Beketov,” the company said.
Together with these and other universities, Ukrenergo is improving its training programs for energy specialists in various fields and provides university teachers with opportunities for practical training at production facilities and in the company’s training center.
Ukrenergo also has an internship and employment program for senior students and graduates called Energy HUB.
“About 60% of participants in this program end up staying on to work full-time. Such initiatives help students start their careers immediately after graduation and help our company effectively build a qualified talent pool,” explained NEC.
Ukrenergo is among the largest business investors in Ukrainian education. The list of the top 51 companies that invest the most in education was compiled by Delo․ua and the Kyiv School of Economics.
The study took into account the volume of investments and educational initiatives of Ukrainian companies during 2022-2025. According to the organizers, this period was chosen for the ranking because investing in education during a full-scale war means believing in the future of both one’s own business and Ukraine as a whole.

Optima School is planning to open online and offline education hubs in Ukraine and abroad, its founder Roberts Weishla said at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine news agency on Thursday.
“Now our goal is to open hubs of mixed offline and online education in Ukraine and not only in Ukraine, where children will be able to study not only remotely but also in person. Additional classes, clubs, etc. will be introduced there to make it interesting,” said Vaischla.
He noted that Optima planned to open an offline learning space last year by building Ukraine’s first blended learning school. However, according to him, a legal dispute over the land plot on which the school was planned to be built is ongoing.
“The school purchased a plot of land for construction, and now there is a court case going on. And we don’t know what will happen to this project. As a citizen of another country, I don’t really understand the arguments that the government agencies used to suspend our work,” Vaisla added.
For her part, Optima School director Olga Bilodid said that the school will open an educational hub in Kyiv.
“It may not be an Optima space, and it will be much smaller, but the idea will be realized, and such a space will start in Kyiv,” said Bilodid.
According to her, the hubs will offer courses aimed at the practical component.
“If it is language or literature, there will be classes in journalism and public speaking, if it is chemistry and physics, there will be laboratories. If it is, for example, a foreign language, it will be discussion clubs. That is, we want to give our children more practice,” explained Bilodid.
Optima School was established and licensed in 2015. The school currently has 20 thousand students.

Optima Distance College is planning to expand its list of majors to include humanities and eventually establish a university, Optima School director Olga Bilodid told Interfax-Ukraine news agency on Thursday.
“Now there are five of them (specialties), but there is an intention to develop, and the range of specialties will definitely expand,” Bilodid said.
According to her, Optima College graduates receive a junior bachelor’s degree and have the opportunity to enter the college after both the 9th and 11th grade.
Belodid added that the creation of an Optima university is currently on the agenda for the future.
“We are persistently looking in this direction and think that this intention will be realized, but we still need to understand how to implement it in the realities of our country,” said the director of Optima School.
According to the website, Optima Distance College is a project of the largest distance school in Ukraine, Optima. The college offers five specialties: entrepreneurship and trade, psychology, computer science, marketing, and graphic design. The tuition fee is UAH 2 thousand per month, regardless of the specialty.
