The pandemic has only accelerated these efforts, requiring employees to gain new digital skills to embrace the changing nature of their jobs. We are honored to partner with Sberbank to provide job-relevant online learning and help employees adapt to new business imperatives.

The employees of Sberbank will also have access to Guided Projects, which is a hands-on learning experience that develops job-relevant skills like data analysis with Plotly and Python, app development in Android Studio with Java, and social media marketing with Canva.

Students can learn from industry educators like the Higher School of Economics, the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, the University of Michigan, Yandex, Google Cloud and others. And not only skills for IT but also HR, marketing and other professionals who use programming to digitalize their workflow.
