International Olympiads

Compete in Albania first, then represent the country at international finals after qualification.

Phase 1 in Albania → Qualification → International Final. Destinations and dates are set by the international organiser.

StarBalkans international olympiads give pupils in grades 1–12 the opportunity to compete first in Albania and, after qualification, to represent the country at international final stages.

The process has two phases: Phase 1 in Albania → Qualification → International Final Phase. The final destination and dates are set in advance by the international organiser and are communicated when the first phase opens.

In Albania, StarBalkans is the local organiser and official partner, responsible for registration, organising the national phase, communication with participants and families, results, and qualification procedures. For qualified pupils, StarBalkans manages communication with the international organiser and provides assistance throughout preparation and participation in the final.

The international organiser sets the official final packages, accommodation, programme and activities. Delegation coordination is carried out in cooperation between StarBalkans and the international organiser. StarBalkans informs and assists families with documentation and related procedures, according to the requirements of each destination.

Flights and travel insurance are the family’s responsibility, except where otherwise stated in the terms of a specific programme.
