About

In the face of rapid changes in the education system, skill upgradation for teachers is the need of the hour. Chalkboards have transformed into smart boards and digital presentations. Access to new tools and technologies, and updated curriculums made it significantly important for teachers to pace up with the latest teaching methods and sharpen their proficiency further in the subjects they teach.

As teaching is an evolving skill & with the aim to help teachers become more proficient in the subjects they teach,Β CREST OlympiadsΒ (the Most Innovative Online Olympiad Exams)Β an active community of 4000+ schoolsΒ has launched the International Teacher OlympiadsΒ certification initiative. Appearing for these teacher certification tests is an excellent opportunity for tutors from all over the world to evaluate their practical understanding of the concepts in the subjects that they teach.

Becoming certified, educators earn a badge that helps them to stand out as top educator among others and makes them qualified to be preferred for taking classes for Olympiad exams & other competitions. Additionally, the scorecard will be of importance in placements from our partner academic institutions.
