Since 2017, within the collaboration framework established between the Ministry of Science and Education, the Institute of Education, and Azercell, the schoolchildren have been receiving specialized trainings in preparation for the Informatics Olympiads. Also, for the past three years, the national team of young female students has been receiving targeted training for the European Girls’ Informatics Olympiad with an aim to further encourage female participation in IT. Notably, in 2024, at the competition held in the Netherlands, Azerbaijani female participants secured two medals.
The program also includes intensive training camps designed to support the next generation of IT and ICT specialists. These camps provide students from Baku and various regions of the country with hands-on experience in algorithmic problem-solving, exposure to advanced trends, and opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting. Structured in alignment with international Olympiad standards, these sessions ensure participants across different age groups are well-prepared for global competitions.
