About the project

National Freelance Program is an IT Community initiative that develops freelancing across Uzbekistan, with a strong focus on regional and remote areas.

It teaches people how to start freelancing, how the platforms work and how to turn that into income without leaving their region. The program exists so that where a person lives stops deciding whether digital work is available to them.

What it does

From the first explanation to a working profile.

01
Teaches the craft
How to start working as a freelancer in different fields, explained from the beginning rather than assumed.
02
Covers the platforms
How freelance platforms work, how to register on them and how to actually get work through them.
03
Runs in person
Workshops, masterclasses and practical sessions, so the material is worked through rather than watched.
04
Opens a door
Participants are introduced to the freelance platform of IT Community itself.
