English is the language most widely used for communication and the first global lingua franca. In the modern era, English happens to be the most popular and the most spoken language. Children who know English not only excel in exams but are known to do well in practically every aspect of their dealings.

Assessment of one’s language skills is the key to identifying and measuring one’s “educational achievement”. People’s lives around the world are shaped by the outcomes of such assessments, which they receive as part of their education process.

Assessment is used at all the times in every field, for taking decisions. However, the holistic assessment we offer is extremely useful as it helps shape the future of an individual and plays a critical role in the process of laying foundation for his/her career.

Hence UIEO’s effort is to present its students with an all-encompassing assessment that will place them at the threshold of easier learning and mastering the language of the world, in the easiest and the quickest way.

India has seen a spectacular success in IT and computers which is acknowledged around the world. But computer education in our country is highly fragmented and is without any common goal or platform. Realising the huge importance of streamlined and competitive education in computers & IT and with a view to fortifying India’s success, Unified Council has forayed into Unified Cyber Olympiad (UCO).

It motivates children to strengthen their knowledge of using mental ability, logical reasoning & computer knowledge. Proficiency in these areas will help them in overcoming problems related to software, management crises, lack of judgement and decision-making.

Unified Cyber Olympiad(UCO), which will be held across the country with the following goals :

• Streamlining computer education
• Instilling competitiveness in computer education
• Including logic, reasoning and mental ability in the learning process
• Identifying talent and assessing students on a nationwide platform
• Exposing students to the latest technology and study in computers

Eligibility:

Student of classes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10.

Exam Pattern:
