I am very happy to have taken this course. The first thing I must note is the absolute clarity and comprehensibility of the information and its presentation by Mr. Valeriy. The second is the informative content itself. This training pulls you out of your bubble. Its added value is a vaccine against the potential risks of disappointment and low mood. I really love, appreciate and share the approach of a realistic, critical view of life, but with a place for light along the way and at the end of the road. It is wonderful when a measurement contains breadth of thought, practicality of character, and love, which is a noun measured by its verb. A cool head and a warm heart is an expression that runs through my life. In this course, I felt this manifestation, which brings me back to the words with which it all began about happiness. How can I not add to this happiness the happiness of meeting people who strive for change and development? It is so gratifying to see and feel this movement around me.
I must note the generally wonderful, warm welcome, the cosiness of the space, the atmosphere, the food — all of this was delightful and contributed to leaps in the depth of thought and its action. It is valuable when people care so much.
Thank you very much, and I will definitely recommend the course.

In my opinion, the course is meaningful and helps to systematise the variability of scenarios, choose the best vector for each one, based on goals and taking trends into account. The tools obtained are relevant and practical for decision-making in both business and life.
It was also interesting to understand current geopolitical trends. Mr Valeriy clearly and thoroughly explained what is happening and where we are headed.
Wonderful participants with whom it is interesting to communicate and exchange insights. Excellent organisation. And the School itself is a very atmospheric place that you want to return to. Thank you!

About the course
A course that significantly broadens your worldview.
As a skills course, it introduces you to the Forsight model for scenario modelling of the future, including for business. The introduction is reinforced by group practice, which is extremely useful in understanding the specifics of applying the model.
As a lecture course, it offers an extremely broad view of geopolitics, drawing on both a comprehensive historical context and plausible scenarios for the future of countries, regions and the world. It provides an extremely large amount of useful and structured information as ‘food for thought,’ which, I suppose, stays with the listener for quite a long time. It also forms the basis for self-adequacy in the rapid and colourful flow of daily information.
The course exceeded all my wildest expectations.

About the lecturer
Clear and structured process management.
Keeping the attention of the audience, who listened to the lecturer with enthusiasm.
Providing comprehensive answers to all questions from the audience.
Skillful moderation of complex communication.
Mr Valery is extremely charismatic, winning people over with his openness and structured presentation of complex, multi-layered information.

About the organisation
Training that is all for you and all about you.
Both the training process and the coffee breaks and lunch breaks were planned with care and attention to the audience.

For me, it was a real reboot. I learned to look at ordinary things (daily work tasks, reading the news, making current decisions) from a different angle through the prism of how it can affect the future and what changes are possible right now. I am grateful to the lecturer for the high-quality content. KSPA for the organisation.

It was a powerful intellectual boost. The lectures are full of examples that provoke you to think more broadly and see systemic connections. Valeriy Pekar knows how to combine philosophy, history, business, and futurology into a single picture that inspires and at the same time makes you question your own patterns. After this course, I look at the future differently — as a space that can be managed, rather than simply waited for.

Lifelong learning is the key to development. Adult education takes on special meaning when it takes place within the walls of the Kyiv School of Public Administration named after Serhiy Nyzhnyy, under the mentorship of an outstanding Ukrainian figure.

The future is not only projected — it is created. Valery Pekar’s author’s course provides practical tools for this. Insight: the future depends on us — our actions and thoughts determine it.

A very useful course, both for developing skills in preparing and conducting foresight, analysing trends and long-term planning, and for understanding geopolitics in Ukraine and the world, as well as countries’ development strategies.
And most importantly, it was very pleasant to meet intelligent, interesting and thoughtful people who care about Ukraine’s well-being and sustainable future.

I am thrilled! The artificial intelligence course at KSPA with Yana Khizhinska is something incredible. The material is presented in such depth and at the same time in such an accessible way that even complex things are revealed from a new angle. The atmosphere is warm and inspiring, with lively dialogue with the audience, where every participant is important. Everything is thought out to the smallest detail: from the course topics to the organisation of the space. For the first time, I felt such intellectual drive and genuine pleasure from learning. Thank you to the school and Yana Khizhinska!

An exciting two-day journey into AI. I feel inspired and motivated to work and learn more about new technologies that make life easier. The course is interesting, practical and very useful for my future work.

Very interesting, a wonderful evening. A deep and unconventional look at a topical issue.
