Israeli students will be taught the art of creating video games
Playtika will launch courses with Reichmann University and Tel Aviv-Yaffo Academic College
Reichman University, Google and Playtika have announced a partnership to offer specific courses aimed at attracting talent to the local gaming ecosystem. The announcement was made at Gamin 2022, and Hanit Marinov, VP of Marketing at Google Israel, said they are giving new opportunities to talent.
The most interesting aspect is the opportunity to provide the tech ecosystem to talent without the need of a full degree. The courses offered will focus on game design.
The initial focus of the courses will be on data for gaming, however, the partnership plans to open up additional courses based on the demand in the market.
This approach allows for the partnership to stay relevant and responsive. The partnership between Reichman University, Google and Playtika is an exciting new opportunity for students and professionals wanting to enter the gaming industry. Google will be sponsoring the programme while Reichman University will be bringing the skills and Playtika will help look at the needs of the market.
