The Informatics Union of Greece (www.epe.org.gr), as a body that represents all IT graduates of Higher Education in our country since 2000, starts another cycle of open online courses, with free participation for everyone, with no participation fee.
According to the Statute of the Union, one of the main purposes of its operation is the promotion of the knowledge and use of IT goods by society as a whole and the elimination of technophobia and "illiteracy" in IT.
After the great success of the two previous cycles that were completed last summer and winter respectively, the 3rd cycle includes yet another new series nine online courses with renewed subject matter and content.
The online courses are aimed at anyone, without the need for specialized IT knowledge or other formal conditions for participation. Classes will be held entirely online, live via the Zoom platform. The Instructors are members of the Informatics Association of Greece and conduct the courses voluntarily.
Registrations for participation in the Open Courses of the EPE are made exclusively at the respective registration links below.
