App by ITMO Student will Help Vocational Schools Go Digital
Back when ITMO student Yaroslav Prikazchikov was training at a vocational school (referred to as “colleges” in Russian) he already thought that it’s really uncomfortable that students have to keep track of changes in their schedule on the college’s website, and the communication with group presidents and fellow students is quite ineffective, so they often fail to receive important information on time. In order to optimize this process, he and his team first developed a chatbot for VK, then a mobile app, but never ceased to work on a better solution. Today, his new project is being accelerated at the Future Technologies accelerator. Several of St. Petersburg’s vocational schools already plan to give the new service a try, and in the future, Yaroslav is planning to introduce it in the regions. In an interview for ITMO.NEWS, he shared about his project and the peculiarities of working with vocational schools.
