A large-scale educational program was officially presented by Google on July 18, 2025, which aims to bring about a radical change in the professional training of specialists in information technology.
The innovative strategy covers multiple European countries, including Bulgaria, and is aimed at various target groups - young professionals, unemployed candidates, and employees who wish to expand their qualifications.
The Bulgarian component of the initiative includes specialized online courses, focused on three key areas: programming, cybersecurity, and data analysis. Additionally, Google is partnering with local universities and technology companies to provide practical training.
The strategic goal of the project is to overcome the existing deficit of highly qualified specialists and stimulate the innovative potential in the regional technology sector.
According to the company's official forecasts, by the end of 2025, over 10,000 European citizens will go through the proposed educational programs. The initiative is seen as part of a larger European strategy for digital transformation and sustainable development of the labor market.
