European Education Center Ühring MTÜ

The European Education Center (EEC) is an Estonia-based non-profit organization rooted in Georgia and established in 2017. EEC develops and delivers high-quality international non-formal education programs that connect young people with Europe’s political, academic, scientific, and technological ecosystems. Over the past years, the organization has implemented more than 32 international study and innovation programs, engaging over 500 students and young professionals from Georgia, Ukraine, the Baltics, and wider Europe.

EEC’s core mission is to expand access to meaningful learning experiences that deepen understanding of European values, global affairs, scientific discovery, and technological innovation. Our flagship initiatives — including the European Study Trip, Modern Science Trip, and TechExpedition — offer participants first-hand exposure to EU and NATO institutions, leading research centers such as CERN, and global technology hubs such as Silicon Valley. Through these programs, young people gain direct insight into how Europe’s future is shaped across policy, science, and industry.

In addition to international mobility programs, the European Education Center contributes to professional orientation, academic advising, and career development. We support students in exploring emerging fields, identifying academic and professional pathways, and developing future-ready competencies such as critical thinking, leadership, digital literacy, and global awareness. Many EEC participants pursue further studies and careers in European universities, research institutions, and technology sectors.

Through its long-term activities, the European Education Center continues to empower the next generation of leaders, innovators, and professionals by providing access to transformative learning opportunities and strengthening connections between Europe and its youth.
