Within the framework of the initiative projects of the Nur Otan party to support people of the older generation, a pilot project «Silver University» was launched at the Karaganda Industrial University in February 2021. In total, 27 people have expressed their desire to study at the Silver University since the launch of the project. The project participants were most attracted by such areas as computer literacy and the school of entrepreneurship. Also

Temirtau residents of retirement age had the opportunity to undergo training in various programs in accordance with their interests.

The Vice-Rector for Strategic Planning of the KarIU Galina Aleksandrovna Sivyakova congratulated the «silver graduates» on the completion of their studies. The graduates expressed their deep regret about the completion of their favorite courses and expressed a desire to re-study.

Summing up the work of the first stream of the Silver University, I would like to note the enthusiasm with which our students of elegant age took this initiative, their desire to develop and learn something new. And we are looking forward to meeting our graduates in new classes and we know for sure that it is never too late to study!

Let us also remind that in addition to computer literacy courses, within the framework of the Silver University project, groups are completed in such areas as financial literacy, a school of entrepreneurship, and a chess club.
