LINK Learning Foundation

Our mission is to help people to become more successful, fulfil their dreams and build a business career they covet. We have, therefore, created this unique foundation to enable those who wish to develop through modern and top-quality education programmes and fulfil their dreams and goals.
 
We help numerous young talents who wish to develop themselves, people who find financial difficulties the sole obstacle preventing them from independently making a living and securing a safe future, disabled people who will obtain exquisite knowledge enabling them to become equal members of our society, as well as those who truly wish to enhance their talents and achieve the success they deserve.
 
Each year, the LINK Learning Foundation provides more than 100 students with education support within the large LINK Educational Alliance group of schools.

 

Permanently available financial support programmes for future secondary school and other students

Free education for persons with disabilities

Each year, LINK group provides free education for disabled people who wish to study at ITAcademy, BusinessAcademy and InternetAcademy in Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Romania.
 
The recipients have direct access to practical skills and knowledge, thus becoming competitive on the labour market in the profession of their choice. Free scholarships for disabled people amounting to €50,000 are awarded regularly, each year.

 

Support that changed the lives of many

We are well-aware of the fact that there are many talented individuals among us who are prevented from developing themselves due to financial reasons; who are motivated and want to make a change in their lives, but do not have the means to do so. Therefore, we strive to make education at our institutions available to them.
 
So, in cooperation with B92, LINK group awarded two free scholarships for ITAcademy and BusinessAcademy, having selected two out of several hundred candidates who had sent their applications and excellent motivational letters.
 
Similarly, ITAcademy and Infostud organized a campaign in which all those interested in IT professions had a chance to win a free one-year education programme at ITAcademy. Among several hundred participants motivated by various reasons, the ITAcademy scholarship went to IT engineer Boris Bojat from Novi Sad, on account of his great aspiration to enhance his IT skills. 

At the Job Fair in Sarajevo, we awarded two scholarships to talented visitors who had written the best motivational letter. Nađa Zubčević became a BusinessAcademy student at the Entrepreneurship department, while Dženan Ganović chose the Programming department at ITAcademy.
 
We have also helped the youngest, by providing a scholarship for a one-year education programme at ITAcademy for the children at the Centre for the Protection of Infants, Children and Youth in Belgrade. The valuable prizes were awarded as part of an interesting competition in which the participants wrote essays on the following topic: Internet in children’s shelters – a chance for a better future.
 
However, this is just the beginning - many similar stories are yet to come.
