Three-Day Teacher Training on GRT Preparation

A three-day training program for 69 teachers of Mathematics, Russian, and Kyrgyz languages from schools in Issyk-Kul, Jalal-Abad, Chuy, and Osh regions was successfully conducted in Bishkek.

The event was organized under the project "Enhancing Teachers’ Qualifications for General Republican Testing Preparation" in partnership with the Center for Educational Assessment and Teaching Methods (CEATM) @ort_ceatm_official.

The program was aimed at strengthening teachers' professional competencies for effective preparation of high school graduates for the General Republican Testing (GRT). Over three days of intensive work, participants together with experienced experts (Farkhad Ismailov, Azamat Omorov, and Tatyana Matokhina) thoroughly analyzed the structure and tasks of the GRT, mastered modern methodologies for developing students' logical and analytical thinking, and received a set of educational and methodological materials along with certificates of completion.

Empowering teachers is an important contribution of Good Neighbors toward ensuring quality and accessible education, as well as creating new opportunities for the future of youth in the Kyrgyz Republic.
