The Economics Olympiad, established in 2016 by the Institute of Economic Education (INEV) and its founder Martina Bacik, quickly became one of the Czech Republic’s most prestigious high school competitions. Now engaging about 80,000 students globally, it attracts participants aged 14 to 20 and receives support from Ministries of Education, Central Banks, Academic Institutions, and prestigious Sponsors. Our mission is to provide in-depth economic and financial education, empower educators, and drive systemic change in educational systems globally. We aim to equip young individuals with the economic literacy essential for informed decision-making and active participation in the global economy.
The Economics Olympiad, the world's largest and fastest-growing economics competition for high school students, faced significant challenges in managing the logistics of delivering tests to a global audience. With 80,000 tests to administer in multiple languages, the process of manually handling certificates and maintaining a centralized control panel was inefficient and time-consuming. This complexity hindered the smooth execution of the competition and placed a heavy burden on national organizers.
To solve these problems, the Economics Olympiad started using ProProfs Quiz Maker. This program offered everything they needed at a reasonable price. It allowed them to deliver tests worldwide in many languages, keep track of everything from one central location, and give out certificates automatically. ProProfs was easy to use for both the organizers and the students, making it a perfect fit for the Olympiad's needs.
Key Benefits:
ProProfs Quiz Maker made a big difference for the Economics Olympiad. The platform facilitated the delivery of 80,000 tests this year, significantly reducing the workload for organizers and saving thousands of work hours.
Automated certificate issuance streamlined the process, eliminating the need for manual handling. Additionally, the cost savings from transitioning to ProProfs allowed the organization to allocate resources more effectively. The support provided by ProProfs, particularly the assistance from Naveen, ensured a smooth experience, leading to a high level of satisfaction with the platform.
