Why UCO?
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 without any common goal of platform.
Realizing the huge importance of streamlined and
competitive education in computers and IT and with
a view to fortifying India's success, Unified Council
is foraying into its Unified Cyber Olympiad.
It motivates children to strengthen their knowledge
in mental ability, logical reasoning & computer
knowledge. Proficiency in these areas will help
every child to face the problems related to software
solutions, management crises, lack of judgement
and decision making .

across the country with the following goals :
