The leaders of Kazakh
universities have received advanced training and
exchanged experiences with representatives from top British universities. This
opportunity was extended not only to rectors and vice rectors but also to deans
and heads of departments from domestic educational institutions as part of a
special program supporting the systemic transformation of higher education in
the country and the transition to an effective management model. In general,
the training encompassed nine interactive modules covering topics such as
ensuring the quality of academic programs and effective university structure.
One of the modules involved a detailed study of the practices of highly-rated
British universities.
“British universities have
extensive experience in developing and shaping educational strategies,
implementing educational programs, as well as in searching for and managing
professional personnel, which is highly beneficial for our university. As the
Vice Rector for Academic Affairs, I can say that we will be integrating
innovations into our strategies based on the knowledge we have gained,” said
Serik Makysh, Vice Rector of Gumilyov Eurasian National University.
