Sergunina invited the capital's youth to attend free courses

A new stream of students has been recruited at the Moscow Youth Academy. Participants will gain skills in design, Internet marketing, digital technologies and other relevant areas, said Natalia Sergunina, Deputy Mayor of the capital.

"There are six courses waiting for the students, which were voted for by the young Muscovites themselves. During the classes, students will learn how to effectively use neural networks, what tools can be useful for creating creative projects and promoting their brand," said Sergunina. The training is free. It will start in early May and will be held in an online format.

For example, in the framework of the program "Environment Designer. Introduction to the profession" young people will get acquainted with the history of this field, the basics of project visualization in a graphic editor, types of finishing materials and their competent application. Participants of the track "Internet marketing. Social Media Promotion" will master the skills needed by successful entrepreneurs. These include data analysis, developing strategies to increase the audience, and creating engaging content.

Students of the course "Neural Networks: from theory to practice — tools for the future" will be told what opportunities artificial intelligence provides to creative people and how it can be used to optimize many routine processes. Students studying in the field of "Graphic editor. Raster graphics" will practice creating digital illustrations in various techniques.

Participants of the Computer Networks and Information Security program will be taught how to recognize Internet scammers and protect their data. In the classes of another program, everyone will learn how to take high-quality photos and videos, as well as edit the footage.

The Academy was opened last spring in conjunction with the Technograd innovation and educational complex at VDNH. Residents of the capital from 16 to 35 years old can study there. Information about other opportunities is available on the Youth of Moscow portal.
