Zleenk

Zleenk is a digital educational platform that combines entertainment and learning. The key asset of our company are people who truly believe that the only way leading to a promising future and secure Armenia is education. Our platform links Armenian school children, Armenian professionals and socially responsible partner companies, thus creating the main 3 sectors of Zleenk. The platform offers courses, events, competitions, networking groups that correspond to the specific interests of children. Our goals are: - make children compete for ideas and not for higher grades, encourage collaboration and develop the culture of knowledge sharing - make high quality learning accessible to all by offering free courses carried by the top specialists and true enthusiasts of their field - contribute to the development of vocational education and training in Armenia. Explain that being a qualified and happy hairdresser is better than an unqualified accountant who struggles to find an employment or is not satisfied with his job - discover and award talented children who receive low grades along with a title of "lazy", "incapable" for not being good at traditional subjects. If one is not able to do math, he may become a good farmer, cook or an actor - give a chance to explore subjects that are far from being integrated in school curriculums (e.g. Machine Learning, Astronomy, Finance, Hairdressing, Farming etc.) - help children choose their future profession more easily through our discovery meetings, through online live streams from different companies. Show and explain the nature of various professions in their natural habitat - ensure the integration of children with disabilities, children from vulnerable communities
