Almaty, December 10, 2025

The Economic College of NARXOZ University held a strategic meeting with employers dedicated to discussing the quality of workforce training within the Technical and Vocational Education (TVET) system and updating educational programs in line with labor market demands.

In the college’s conference hall, business representatives from the finance, IT, law, marketing, and management sectors, including Forte Bank, Ustem, Mybuh.kz, Q-Space, KOKO, the Almaty City Department of Justice, and Kaizen Club, discussed key industry challenges: the lack of practical skills among graduates, the gap between educational programs and company requirements, and the need for active employer involvement in the educational process.

The college presented initiatives to update educational programs, expand internship bases, create joint case studies, and involve experts in student assessment. Employers emphasized that company participation in the development of the Work Curriculum (WC), conducting master classes, mentoring, and supporting graduate employment are important elements of future collaboration.

The meeting served as a starting point for the creation of a working group and the preparation for signing a memorandum of cooperation.
