The Faculty of Information Technology at the University “Mediterranean” Podgorica has successfully completed the Interactive Career Training (ICT) programme, providing participants with the opportunity to enhance their professional knowledge and skills through a two-month internship, hands-on experience, mentorship, and real-world business challenges.
Throughout the two-month internship, participants worked alongside experienced IT professionals, applied their academic knowledge to practical tasks, and gained valuable insight into modern business processes. Their dedication, motivation, and outstanding results once again demonstrated the importance of strengthening collaboration between higher education and industry.
