In autumn of 2001, the Latvian Academy of Business and Management and an economics educational organization implemented a commerce program for Dobele students.

The school participates in the AFS inter-cultural exchange program and DVG students have studied abroad in many countries around the world, including Denmark, the US, and Scotland.

DVG has also received exchange students from Australia, Germany, Austria, Thailand, Brazil, and France.

The project was initiated by teacher L. Čebaņenko, who matriculated two 10th grade classes in a single year.

DVG students have earned awards in educational competitions at the district, county, national, and international level.
