Opening the meeting, Gulshara Abdykalikova noted that at the recent XI Astana Economic Forum, the President of Kazakhstan stressed, On the cusp of the state formation, we launched Bolashak Program, which made it possible for 13,000 Kazakhstanis to be taught publicly funded at the best universities in the world. The Head of State also focused on transformation of the global labour market and Kazakhstan’s measures to reform the education sphere, aimed at building the skills of creative thinking, the ability to find the right information and apply it correctly.

The Secretary of State stressed that Nursultan Nazarbayev in his Address New Opportunities for Development in the Fourth Industrial Revolution paid special attention to the development of human capital. The key priority of educational programs is meant to be the development of the ability to constantly adapt to changes and assimilation of new knowledge. This calls for accelerating the creation of its own advanced educational system, with citizens of all ages inclusive.

- In these processes, heavy responsibility lies with the quality implementation of Bolashak  Program, Gulshara Abdykalikova said.
