The Fair of Education PUTOKAZI in 2022

The 17th International Fair of Education PUTOKAZI has made it easier for elementary and secondary school students and their parents to find the answer to the question “Where to go further?”

This year's Fair of Education is the largest fair that has been so far organised at the Novi Sad Fair and it is opened by the Minister of Education, Science and Technological Development, Branko Ružić. In relation to the fair from 2020, in terms of the number of exhibitors, it is 10% bigger. The novelty is the presentation of all higher education state schools in Vojvodina.

Traditionally, all faculties of the University of Novi Sad, private universities in Serbia and abroad, as well as institutions and organisations that have offered more than 500 educational profiles have taken part. The students who pass through the gates of the Novi Sad Fair have the opportunity to see a comprehensive picture of secondary, college, and university education in our country that is complemented by the offer of faculties from abroad – Republic of Srpska, Slovenia, Slovakia, and Canada.

The computer from PUTOKAZI goes to Sremska Mitrovica

The Provincial Secretariat for Education, Regulations, Administration and National Minorities - National Communities, the Company “Vega IT” and the Novi Sad Fair have provided a computer, and a requirement for participation is that schools fill out a registration form upon entering the “Master” Hall and to put it in the box at the stand of the Secretariat.

The school for elementary and secondary education “Radivoj Popović” in Sremska Mitrovica has been the most fortunate. The coupon with the name of the school is drawn by the Head of the Department for Education and Legal Affairs in the Field of Education, Danica Lučić.

In the Prize Game, 30 schools have been registered.
