Educational initiatives in Croatia are focusing on digital literacy and professional development through new curricula and international mobility programs.

The Croatian Academic and Research Network (CARNET) has finalized an artificial intelligence curriculum under the BrAIn project. This program spans from 5th-grade primary school through high school, covering topics such as AI models, data bias, ethical implications, cybersecurity, and disinformation. In high schools, the curriculum is offered as a 35-hour annual elective.

Complementing these domestic developments, Croatian institutions are utilizing Erasmus+ accreditation for international training. Early childhood educators have engaged in job shadowing and courses in countries including Italy, Finland, and Slovenia, focusing on pedagogical methods and AI. Additionally, secondary students and teachers have participated in programs in Portugal and Germany to specialize in media technology, 3D modeling, and AI chatbots.
