Horizons of Education and Career
From February 19 to 21, the International Exhibition Center in Riga is hosting one of the most significant events in the field of education — the «Skola 2026» exhibition. The event offers comprehensive information on study opportunities in Latvia and abroad, as well as paths for professional development.
Over the course of three days, representatives from public and private universities are presenting admission rules and new study programs for the 2026–2027 academic year. Special focus is placed on state-funded study places, exchange programs, internships, and career prospects.
Key highlights of the exhibition include:
