“Comprehensive modernization of the economy imposes new tasks related to the development of human capital. In this regard, the field of education plays a particularly important role.

Within the framework of the national project ‘Future Schools’, 150 out of the planned 217 schools are already in operation. The construction of the remaining schools must be completed within the next three months.

Digital technologies are rapidly transforming the global labor market. Every year, the demand for specialists who understand the intricacies of working with artificial intelligence is increasing. It is clear that a significant part of work processes will be automated through the introduction of digital technologies.

That is why, on my instructions, the Al-Sana program has been launched, which aims to involve about 100,000 students in technological projects.

However, competence in working with artificial intelligence must be developed much earlier — namely, from school. In this regard, several initiatives should be implemented. First of all, it is necessary to develop a program and teaching materials on the basics of artificial intelligence for schoolchildren. It is also necessary to form teachers’ skills in mastering AI technologies.

Based on distance learning methods and artificial intelligence technologies, we must develop a model of a small-scale school called ‘Qazaq Digital Mektebi’. Such a platform will make it possible to provide rural students with access to quality learning methods.

In the capital, there is already experience in building child development centers through private investment. This practice should be extended to all regions. Many entrepreneurs have expressed their willingness to assist in this matter. Akims must actively engage entrepreneurs in the implementation of such projects.”
