Moldova's Ministry of Education and Research, with UNICEF, launched a free course teaching middle- and high-school students to move from AI prompts to building simple applications, part of a wider push toward AI literacy in schools.
Moldova's Ministry of Education and Research, working with UNICEF Moldova, developed and launched a free course described as taking students 'from prompts to simple applications,' aimed at middle- and high-school students and open to any interested learner.
The course introduces students to practical use of generative AI tools, from writing effective prompts through to building simple applications. Moldova has also begun sending teachers to South Korea under the KLIC 2026 programme to build digital and AI teaching competencies, and the course is framed as a foundational step within Moldova's 2026-2030 national AI strategy, which anticipates AI literacy, digital ethics and media literacy content from primary school onward starting 2027.
Public reporting to date documents only the course's launch and stated aims; no enrolment figures, completion rates, or independent evaluation of student learning outcomes have yet been published.
