Ekaterina Khalimon, Associate Professor of the Project Management Department at the State University of Management, won the "Mentor in Education in Moscow – 2026" competition in the "Best Mentoring Practice (Higher Education)" category.

Since 2022, the competition has been held by the Moscow City Organization of the All-Russian Trade Union of Education with the support of the Moscow Department of Education and Science.

This year, 208 teaching staff from Moscow educational institutions competed for the title of best in three stages of the competition. Participants demonstrated their mentoring practices, prepared presentations for a scientific and practical conference, conducted focus group workshops for competition experts, and participated in a roundtable discussion on current mentoring topics.

State University of Management (GUU) lecturer Ekaterina Khalimon presented her "Mentoring Model in Research" at the competition and received high marks from experts at all stages of the competition, winning the "Best Mentoring Practice (Higher Education)" category.

The "Trade Union Mentor" badge, a winner's diploma, and commemorative gifts were presented to Ekaterina Khalimon by Konstantin Guzhevkin, Chairman of the All-Russian Trade Union of Education.

"I am grateful to my mentor, Irina Brikoshina, Head of the Project Management Department, for her support in all my endeavors. The competition was organized at the highest level, and its main advantage was the opportunity to learn about colleagues' practices, share experiences, contacts, and gain new ideas for further development," the winner shared.

As a reminder, in 2023, Ekaterina Khalimon was awarded the "Honorary Mentor" badge for "significant achievements in the field of education and many years of conscientious work" by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.

We congratulate Ekaterina Andreevna on her victory and wish her continued success in bringing her ideas to life and reaching new heights in her professional endeavors!
