International Chess-in-Education (ICEC) Conference

Chess is growing at a phenomenal speed and this is purely due to school children taking up the game. To augment this process, it becomes necessary that schools are guided to have chess in its curricula.
The benefits of teaching chess is well-known to the world. Chess, by its nature, helps students to think independently, and thereby arousing their perception of life situations more calmly and more logical thinking.
