A new generation
The support of education and new generations is one of the basic goals included in the Social Responsibility Strategy of OKTA AD - Skopje. In that direction the company for several years, through various activities and initiatives helps the educational process in the country and supports young talented and ambitious people in upgrading their educational and professional development.
Recognising that the modern way of living and working requires continuous investment in new knowledge and skills, we are constantly looking for ways to offer our support to young people, but also to the education system as a whole. Successful and dedicated students are the bearers of the future development of the country and that's why the new generations are one of the target groups that OKTA will be focused on in the future.
