OSF Digital’s commitment to education includes seminars, courses, and training through three global programs: OSF Academy, the OSF Digital Scholarship Program, and the partnership with the faculties in the digital field.
Partnership with Alexandru Ioan Cuza University
In the last two years, one unique partnership has been between OSF and the Alexandru Ioan Cuza University in Iasi, the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, specialization in Economic Informatics, through a collaboration program that covers the entire academic year. Through this collaboration, three clubs are organized for 3rd-year students specializing in Economic Informatics: Salesforce Commerce Cloud Merchandising, Salesforce CRM, and Front-End Web Development Course.
In addition to this educational program, OSF Digital donated 40,000 euros to the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, specializing in Economic Informatics. The sponsorship has covered the renovation of one laboratory, including furniture and IT equipment. This will be the development ground for the students, with excellent study and work conditions.
As part of the OSF Foundation, OSF Digital created a scholarship program to help children from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds receive a high-quality education. OSF identifies stellar students and offers them scholarships to give them a chance at a better future and to reach their full potential. In 2022, OSF has offered scholarships to 30 students through this program.
In Romania, OSF Digital has been present through local offices since its establishment in 2003. OSF has offices in Bucharest, Iasi, Cluj-Napoca, Suceava, Brașov, Pitesti, Craiova, and Piatra Neamt.
