Pedagoško društvo Srbije - Pedagogic Society of Serbia

What Pedagoško društvo Srbije - Pedagogic Society of Serbia does

Pedagoško društvo Srbije (Pedagogical Society of Serbia), founded in 1949 and headquartered at Terazije 26, Belgrade, is a voluntary professional association (strukovna organizacija) serving graduated pedagogues, professors of pedagogy, school psychologists, and preschool educators across Serbia. With a staff of six, it operates as the recognized national body for the pedagogical profession, delivering accredited continuing education seminars, publishing the peer-reviewed scientific journal 'Nastava i vaspitanje' (Teaching and Education) and the newsletter 'Pedagoške novine', and organizing the annual national 'Susreti pedagoga' conference together with the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Belgrade.

The society's core offerings are content- and event-based rather than software-based. Technology infrastructure consists of a WordPress website (pedagog.rs), Zoom-based webinar delivery, Google Forms for registration, an email bulletin, and an active social presence across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, and YouTube. Distributed operations run through regional branches (Podružnice) such as the Nis District branch, dedicated sections including the Republic Section of Professional Associates, a Youth Club, and a volunteer program. International engagement is delivered through Erasmus+ mobility projects, including a 2026 job shadowing partnership with CEP Almería in Spain.

Revenue is generated from two streams: annual membership dues (with new pricing effective February 1, 2026) and pay-per-event fees for seminars and webinars (500 RSD for members, 900 RSD for non-members, 10 EUR for international participants). AI capabilities are limited to thematic content on responsible AI in education and light internal use by the society's internet technology specialist; there is no proprietary AI product. The society is governed by a small leadership team headed by President Ivan Davidović, Vice President Dr Maja Vračar, and Secretary Tijana Milešević.
