Why this matters

The smartphone often arrives before the orientation.

Children grow up with digital media as a given. At the same time, new questions appear: What may I share? Who can I trust? What do I do when something goes wrong?

Nova Uni helps children understand digital situations better and make safer decisions.

Welcome to Nova Uni

Hi, I’m Nova. Glad you’re here.

How Nova Uni works

How your child learns with Nova Uni

Short videos, interactive questions, and clear feedback turn watching into real understanding. Every course ends with a final test, visible progress, and a personal certificate.

A clear learning world instead of endless scrolling

Your child sees at once where they stand and which station comes next — without scrolling through an endless list.

  • A clear path

    Seven courses per semester. Each course consists of seven short lessons.

  • Nova by their side

    Nova explains, asks questions and helps whenever something is unclear.

  • Progress you can see

    Completed stations, stars and numbers show what has been achieved.

  • Structure and freedom

    Your child can explore — the learning path stays structured all the same.

See all courses

Parents keep an overview. Children explore the digital world.

Parents see learning progress, completed courses, and achievements — without constant control.

Parent dashboard: household overview, children’s progress and next stepsAI-generated content

Parent dashboard

The parent dashboard is the family overview: how many child profiles you have, who has learning access, what to know today, each child’s progress, Nova’s weekly tip and the free guides — without watching over the child all the time.

Child profile: login, licence, progress, stars and certificates

Child profile

In the child profile you set the username and PIN, assign a licence, and see learning progress, stars, certificates and whether Ask Nova is on. The child learns on their own device — this area stays with the parent.

Nova supports your child while learning

Nova answers questions about the course content, explains difficult terms and helps your child make better sense of situations online.
