The topic of retraining of personnel is more relevant than ever in the country today. Even a regulated market economy is just different in that some specialties “fall in price”, while others, on the contrary, become highly paid and in demand. Well, to master a new specialty, of course, you need studies and a diploma. And it is better if the study is serious and intensive.
It is this kind of training, which, in accordance with the Code of the Republic of Belarus on Education, is the implementation of educational programs for additional education for adults, is carried out by the Faculty of Advanced Training and Retraining, which is located in Minsk, on the street. Kozlova, 28. And the diplomas that its graduates receive are highly quoted in the labor market.
KV talked about the educational opportunities of the faculty and the prospects for its development with its dean, candidate of technical sciences, associate professor Vladimir Alekseevich Fedosenko.
- Tell us about the specialties that are studied at the faculty.
If we talk about retraining, and this is education for 1.5 - 2 years with final certification in the form of a state exam or defense of a graduation project (work) with a state diploma, then we are currently implementing three educational retraining programs:
Basic - "Information systems software".
At the turn of the 21st century, I was one of the developers of a new for Belarus and the entire CIS specialty "Web design and computer graphics" both for students and for retraining specialists. Since 2009, recruitment for this specialty has also begun at our institute. Since 2013, we have also been training in the specialty of retraining "Automotive Electronics".
Students study car electronics not only in theory, but also on bench equipment, in specially equipped classrooms. In addition, we have a car and bench equipment specially purchased for training purposes. This allows you to get acquainted with electronic systems in practice, to “feel” them, so to speak, with your own hands.
In addition to retraining, we conduct advanced training courses (more than 100 courses), computer educational courses, and provide training in working professions.
After all, you don’t have any kind of budget or support from the outside, a centralized influx of listeners. How do you manage to "keep up the mark" in training, recruit students, groups, provide them with everything they need?
We really do not have a budget and a flow of students sent by ministries in accordance with annual plans for advanced training, as is the case in sectoral institutions for the education of additional adult education (AED). In this sense, it is not at all easy for us, because we have to collect groups on our own. Basically, we provide recruitment through contacts with university, institute and personal contacts, as well as using various marketing tools.
The brand of the university also plays a significant role. "BSUIR - knowledge and lifestyle!" - this is the slogan of the university. And behind it is a half-century history of training the engineering elite. In fact, today BSUIR is a brand for those who want to master a profession in the IT field. Our diplomas are respected far beyond the borders of Belarus.
And in the field of adult education, we try to maintain a high level of education. Learning should not be easy, for the "easy walk through knowledge" is just wasted time.
- Probably, there are still a lot of competitors?
Of course, a lot. The market for IT specialties is a very attractive segment, the word "programmer" is now in vogue, it goes well with the words "high level of earnings", "high standard of living". And this attracts both listeners and educational institutions seeking to join in meeting the growing demand.
Perhaps one of the most popular retraining specialties in the field of IT is “Information Systems Software”. There are more than sixteen of our competitors, educational institutions implementing this program in Belarus.
But when the question arose of developing standard curricula and educational standards for this specialty, this work was instructed to be done by BSUIR u. We made it. It was our methodological base that became the basis for other UDOs. And, of course, we have a good idea of how to train IT. Therefore, there is every reason to consider us the market leaders in this segment.
- And did everyone agree with your proposals and standards?
Well, complete agreement is a rarity. We repeatedly had to enter into disputes and disputes with representatives of other educational institutions. We were offered to strengthen teaching in the field of mathematics, to significantly expand the block of humanitarian disciplines. With all due respect to both the exact sciences and the humanities, it should be noted that retraining is aimed primarily at acquiring professional knowledge and skills. A short period of study, as well as the knowledge base acquired by the student during the development of the educational program of higher education, also affect the formation of the list of disciplines. So our task? to give future specialists the most necessary and important.
One more aspect. We were very persistently offered to abandon the diploma design. Of course, from the point of view of economic feasibility, replacing diploma design with a state exam is beneficial for any parole. They gathered students, tested their knowledge and issued a diploma. But our position on this issue is fundamental. We believe that we have no moral right to assign a qualification to a specialist without checking his ability to apply the acquired knowledge in practice, without completing the project. I know that IT students of a number of faculties of various educational institutions of our country defend their graduation projects and works, limiting themselves to demonstrating drawings and posters and / or showing a set of slides in MS PowerPoint format. In our country, a prerequisite for protection is a demonstration of the software product developed by the student to the state commission.
It is interesting to note that after we defended our position, as the model curricula and standards developed by us were approved, some educational institutions stopped retraining in this specialty due to a lack of specialist teachers. Moreover, the development of specialties similar in name to the above, but with a “lightweight” educational program, has begun.
- Obviously, the workload of your listeners is considerable. They don't complain?
We regularly conduct surveys. And, indeed, it happens, we encounter cases when they write “a lot of tasks” in the questionnaires. But, nevertheless, in almost every subject, students are asked to increase and increase the number of practical work. Often, students stay after class, "sleeping" the teacher with questions. Our listeners have a very strong motivation to gain knowledge and skills. After all, education is paid, almost all students pay out of their own pocket, and their own invested funds motivate like nothing else. Moreover, if the listeners are dissatisfied with the level of qualification of the teacher, if the teacher cannot find a common language with the audience, if he explains incomprehensibly? students immediately contact the dean's office with a request for a replacement. And we change teachers. Up to 40% of teachers who come to our faculty from student faculties do not stay with us or are forced to sharply raise their level of qualification.
I will pay attention to the number of classroom sessions. It is no secret that part-time education is based on a large percentage of the work performed by the student on their own. Therefore, the number of classroom lessons for students of full-time and part-time forms of education may differ several times. During retraining, when developing standard curricula, we deliberately brought the number of classroom lessons for students of part-time education to the maximum level allowed by law, minimizing the difference in classroom hours between different forms of education. For example, in terms of discipline, evening students have 28 hours of lectures, part-time students - 24 hours, laboratory classes for evening students - 32 hours, part-time students - 28. After all, we study the most complex disciplines that require deep immersion under the guidance of a mentor.
But, we have made some things easier. For example, they did not have two sessions with correspondence students, as usual, but three, shorter in duration. Moreover, they limited the number of disciplines that must be passed in one session - up to 3, and not 5-6, as in the usual, "classic" approach. We decided to take this step after polling and questioning listeners for a number of years.
So it is not easy to study with us, mastering the educational program will require both mental stress and time costs, and, of course, financial investments. But people come to us because they know that here the training will be effective, and the assessment of knowledge will be objective.
Since employers were legally removed from the obligation to let attendees go to sessions, we have been faced with cases where employers obstruct the training of their employees. So, we have letters in which the employer reports that he is not interested in having his particular employee undergo retraining in an IT specialty.
It is clear with paid education - people come on their own, trying to learn something and pay money for it, they are vitally interested in knowledge. Do businesses send people to you?
Of course, they send for advanced training courses (we have more than 100 of them). But there is practically no retraining. Previously, there were cases when enterprises paid for retraining of their employees, I don’t remember this in recent years.
Moreover, since employers were legally removed from the obligation to let attendees go to sessions, we have encountered cases where employers obstruct the training of their employees. So, we have letters in which the employer reports that he is not interested in having his particular employee undergo retraining in an IT specialty. Another example - an employee of one of the Minsk enterprises comes to us for an evening form of education. As soon as his immediate superiors find out about this, the guy is constantly starting to put exits on the second shift. As a result, a person drops out of education due to the inability to attend classes. Another recent example is a listener being drafted into the army. He manages to pass and pass all the disciplines, write a graduation project, all that remains is to appear at the defense. But they don't let him go. His relatives applied to the military unit with a request, I personally called and persuaded him to let the person go for just a couple of hours for protection, because I consider getting an education a valid and justified reason. None. I had to postpone the defense of the graduation project for the future.
I would like to draw your attention to a growing serious problem - a decrease in the level of basic knowledge of students. The changes that have taken place in school education, aimed at a significant reduction in the volume and level of knowledge, primarily in physics, are making themselves felt. I recently took an exam on computer networks for students who came to receive higher education after colleges. There are students who get confused in the units of voltage measurement (they call them “amps”, “joules”), do not know what “interference” and “diffraction” are, are at odds with optics (it’s especially sad that this applies specifically to technical colleges). It turns out that colleges have reduced or removed physics to a minimum in the hope that students have the knowledge they received at school. Against this background, students who come for retraining after the age of 30 are better off, who can often give a significant head start to the younger generation in terms of the level of basic knowledge.
