Why EVAAZ?
A complete learning journey that turns education into skills, projects, and real achievements.
A structured AI and technology learning ecosystem for students aged 4–18, with progressive programs built around each learner’s age and ability — from discovery and creative thinking through coding, AI, robotics, engineering, and innovation.
Here, students don’t just use technology. They learn to build with it.
They solve real problems, develop their own ideas, and present their work with confidence. As the official WAICY partner in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East, we open the path to compete locally and internationally.
From AI fundamentals to training models and building intelligent applications.

Everything YouWant to Know
Everything you need to know about WAICY 2026 and how learning works at Evaaz.
WAICY (World Artificial Intelligence Competition for Youth) is an annual global competition encouraging students worldwide to learn and apply AI to real-world challenges.
Students ages 6–18. You can join individually or as a team, and it is open to participants worldwide, including remote participation.
We provide parents with regular reports and assessments showing the student's development, current level, and newly acquired skills. You can also contact the instructor directly at any time for detailed feedback.
Yes. The program is built on Project-Based Learning. Students apply what they learn directly in a real project that goes through every stage from idea to testing and final presentation, rather than relying on theory alone.
Each group has only 5 to 7 students, ensuring individual attention for everyone. One-to-one private sessions can also be arranged when needed.
We offer both in-person and online classes, plus recorded sessions available on demand for review. Additional support outside class hours is available by email or chat for any student questions.
