At Katalyst Education, we want an education environment which gives all students an equal chance to discover and develop their abilities and capabilities, to make their dreams come true, and to prepare for challenges emerging in the ever-changing world. As such, the foundation’s mission thus far has been to level the playing field for all Polish students by creating free-of-charge, digital, open-source and high-quality educational tools and by supplying services supporting their optimal use.
Katalyst Education has been achieving its mission by shepherding two active and highly successful projects: Pi-stacja (pistacja.tv) and Career Map (mapakarier.org). Both are open, free-of-charge, digital educational resources supplemented with additional materials for teachers, parents and students.
Career Map is one of the most widely used digital tools to support career guidance counselors in primary and secondary education in Poland. Over 500,000 users visited Career Map during 2021, and the application’s users have logged nearly 10 million page views just in the past 12 months.
