The most important period in the development of brain and cognitive skills occurs by the age of twelve and especially in the first several years. That shows how crucial the role and responsibility of parents are in enabling children to reach their potential. The most precious period is actually the time before starting school, because that is when the brain development is at its peak. Its importance has been confirmed by many studies clearly showing that the time and effort we invest in child’s education at early age has a far greater impact than at a later age.

The NTC workshops for children have been developed by the author of the programme “NTC Learning System”. The author is Dr. Ranko Rajović, a long standing member of the Gifted Children Committee of Mensa International and a UNICEF collaborator for early education. The co-author is Uroš Petrović, a writer, author of 12 children and youth literature books. The workshops are conducted by certified lecturers (teachers, expert associates).

They are held throughout the school year, once a week, 32 workshops in a year, with holiday breaks. Each mini 3, mini 4 white and yellow group workshop lasts 60 minutes.
