The NGO “Vilni ta Virni” participated in the realisation of the online platform “Kurs,” where veterans of the Russo-Ukrainian war can choose a specialty, undergo training, and find employment.
The “Kurs” service allows demobilized military personnel to complete online training, take a test, receive an invitation for an interview, and secure employment. The project was developed by the UAV Operator Training Center “KrUK” with support from the International Renaissance Foundation and in collaboration with NGO “Vilni ta Virni.”
Currently, the platform offers training in fields such as construction, administration, sales, pharmacology, communication, and the agricultural sector. Partner employers include Ukrzaliznytsia, Kernel, Arterium, and the Kovalska Industrial-Construction Group.
The business sector is offering veterans not only purely civilian specialties. For instance, Ukrzaliznytsia is ready to train UAV operators, recognizing that the specifics of wartime demand enhanced security measures, and former military personnel could become valuable allies in combating saboteurs.
