„Чехитас Хаус“, организация с нестопанска цел, която обучава жени и деца в дигитални умения, ще открие първия си голям образователен център в Бърно. Той ще бъде разположен в новопостроената Понавка office building. The premises were donated by CTP to Czechitas as a gift for two years with a three-year option. The grant, which also includes the purchase of all necessary office equipment, represents a value of approximately 25 million crowns.
“Много сме доволни, че CTP ни позволи да използваме новосъздадените си помещения. Непрекъснато се борим с липсата на достатъчно място за обучение на участниците в курсовете ни. С тази стъпка можем да организираме повече събития и по този начин да заинтересуваме повече момичета и деца от информационните технологии.” says Czech Director of Sales Lenka Franců , who leads communication with CTP.
After a year of negotiations, Czechitas will move to completely new premises in Q3 this year . In total, they will take over two floors with an area of more than 1,500 m2, which can host up to 350 people.
“Планираме да изградим обществен център на етажа на улицата: кафене, детски кът и по-малки офиси. Горният етаж ще бъде специализиран образователен център. Ще има голяма лекционна зала, стая за релакс, съоръжения за лектори, офиси за персонала на Czechitas и три по-малки класни стаи за семинари. Възнамеряваме да използваме капацитета максимално, за да организираме общо 326 събития за около шест хиляди участници годишно в Бърно.” says Franců.
“It is unbelievable. What I dreamed of from the beginning has become a reality. We’ll have our own ‘school’! I am excited and look forward to the hundreds of positive stories that we can write, ” adds Dita Přikrylová, Czechitas founder.
If we were to quantify the total support for Czechitas in Brno, it is the largest support that this non-profit organization has ever received. Calculating the rent and the investment in the equipment of the premises, two years of operation will add up to nearly 970,000 euros, ie equivalent of almost 25 million crowns.
“We are proud to be in close contact with Czechitas. It is beneficial to us in more ways than only social responsibility. For example, the two teams work together to share their knowledge and experience,” notes Remon Vos, CEO of CTP.
Czechitas is currently dealing with a similar problem regarding a lack of space in Prague, where the demand for their educational activities is even greater than in Brno. “We are currently looking for suitable spaces in Prague so that we can do several workshops at once. The interest is huge and the girls travel to our events from Prague and the regions for our limited capacity. In Prague we would immediately occupy three times the number of seats. Inspired by Brno, we are looking for similar cooperation in Prague today and we hope that we will succeed during the year. I thank CTP very much for supporting us,” concludes Přikrylová.
