Mission and objectives

FREiT operates on the belief that investing in education and the development of modern skills is key to building the future. The foundation's mission is to promote and implement educational innovation, foster practical professional skills, and build societal resilience. FREiT engages in numerous social projects, focusing on education, mental health, and technology.

The foundation places special emphasis on identifying and developing future competencies increasingly valued in the labour market. FREiT conducts extensive research and analyses commissioned by clients to monitor and forecast changes in education, digitalisation, and the labour market. Based on this data, the foundation produces reports that serve as valuable resources for educational institutions, businesses, and decision-makers. FREiT also systematically analyses trends and technological innovations to adapt its programmes and initiatives to evolving market needs. Key publications include:

  • The Future of Education: Scenarios for 2046, created in collaboration with Collegium Da Vinci and Natalia Hatalska's infuture.institute.
  • Future Competencies in the Age of AI, developed by FREiT experts and Collegium Da Vinci.

Modern technologies and the future of education

A key focus area for FREiT is the integration of modern educational technologies. The foundation believes that the future of education lies in the dual approach of using advanced digital tools, including artificial intelligence (AI), and ensuring high-quality professional knowledge and skills. Drawing on the latest technological solutions and practical expertise, FREiT designs educational programmes that enable participants to acquire cutting-edge knowledge, build specialist skills, and adapt to a changing work environment. These programmes include unique, practice-oriented degree, postgraduate, and short-cycle study programmes tailored to current labour market needs, providing students and graduates with swift and effective access to both domestic and international job markets.

The foundation also organises a variety of courses, training sessions, and workshops available both in-person and online. These programmes target people of all ages and career stages, emphasising the practical application of knowledge and customisation to individual needs.

FREiT also assists in designing corporate universities, enabling companies to offer specialised training programmes tailored to industry-specific needs, fostering workforce development in alignment with organisational goals.

Competency development and skill audits

FREiT actively supports future competency development through skill audits, enabling students, employees, and organisations to identify strengths and areas for improvement. Based on these audits, the foundation creates personalised development plans, helping participants enhance key professional competencies.

An innovative offering is the foundation’s mentoring programme, available in both in-person and online formats. A notable feature is "reverse mentoring," which leverages the experience and knowledge of individuals over 50. This approach fosters intergenerational collaboration, enriching the workplace and enhancing understanding across age groups.

Research, analysis, and business support

FREiT collaborates closely with businesses to diagnose training and competency needs. The foundation provides solutions tailored to various industries, enabling companies to effectively enhance employee qualifications. These services include developing tailored training programmes and designing new study tracks, online courses, and workshops.

All activities are grounded in comprehensive research and analysis, offering insights into labour market changes and evolving workforce requirements. This enables FREiT to develop educational tools and training programmes that address real market needs.

Mental health promotion

In addition to its focus on education and technology, FREiT places significant emphasis on mental health. The foundation incorporates a holistic approach to professional development in its educational initiatives, integrating technical skill-building with emotional and mental well-being.

FREiT offers educational programmes for higher education institutions and businesses that aim to build team resilience to workplace challenges. These programmes focus on soft skills, such as stress management, interpersonal communication, and emotional regulation. Through these initiatives, FREiT helps create supportive, growth-oriented work environments.

Inclusivity and diversity

FREiT champions inclusivity and diversity in the workplace, emphasising the value of collaboration among individuals with different experiences, talents, and age groups. The foundation believes diversity is key to unlocking the full potential of teams and organisations.

Through its broad range of initiatives, the Foundation for Development, Education, and Technology supports the growth of a modern, sustainable society equipped to meet future challenges in education and the labour market.
