Why EWERS?

Graduating from middle school or high school is a time of major decisions, when you begin to shape your own life and career. The Võru County Education and Technology Center (EWERS) is a place where you can become independent and learn skills that will give you a definite advantage in the job market and boost your competitiveness.

We want to be a school that attracts students from all over Estonia because we are known for our deliberate focus on talent and technology.

Modern Technology as Part of Every Field of Study

The world is changing rapidly, and we want you to be ready for it. That is why, at EWERS, you will learn how to use (future) technologies regardless of which major you choose.

Our competence center, TSENTER, is closely linked to the school and focuses on supporting entrepreneurship in the fields of automation, robotics, and even defense. This way, while you’re studying, you’ll gain real-world experience with the equipment and knowledge that future employers value.
