As the press service of the head of state reported, according to the analysis, some specialties taught in the higher education system can now be transferred to technical schools. It is noted that this will save time and money for young people.

“In general, it is necessary to change approaches to technical schools. They should not be an easy way to enter the institute, but a system that gives a demanding profession and forms a competitive labor market,” Shavkat Mirziyoyev said.

From January 1 next year, it was instructed to equate the wages of technical school teachers with an academic degree with the salary of university teachers, and also to introduce preferential educational loans for students of colleges and technical schools from the new academic year. The practice of admission to technical schools twice a year will also begin. This will increase vocational education enrollment by 35%.

The Ministry of Employment and Labor Relations was instructed to organize training in modern professions and foreign languages in newly created monocenters, as well as to attract specialists from Turkey, South Korea, Germany, India and Japan.

The issue of stimulating teachers and masters working in vocational education institutions was touched upon. From January 1 next year, their salary will be equal to the salary of school teachers. The difference between the allowances paid for the qualification category will double. Depending on the results achieved, a bonus of up to 50% will be introduced for selfless and enterprising teachers. Next year, an additional 150 billion soums will be allocated from the budget for these purposes.

At the same time, a new system of advanced training for teachers of professional educational institutions will be created. Instead of advanced training faculties in universities, professional training centers will be created in each region. These centers will improve the qualifications of teachers on the basis of studying the needs of employers and foreign experience.
