In 2026, the "Best in Profession" competition will feature a special category, "Second Start," dedicated to veterans of special military operations who have embarked on a new career path. This decision was made during a meeting of the organizing committee of the All-Russian "Best in Profession" professional skills competition. The federal stage of this category will be held in the Samara Region.

The special "Second Start" category became part of the "Best in Profession" competition in 2025. Unlike other categories, which pit the best specialists in a single profession against each other, "Second Start" is open to representatives of various professions who have begun working in a new profession or under new conditions.

"We've decided to dedicate the 2026 'Second Start' category held in the Samara Region to veterans of the Air Defense Forces. Today, as part of the national 'Personnel' project, at the President's direction, we're helping returning Air Defense Forces veterans find a new, in-demand profession and retrain for it free of charge. Our goal is to maximize veterans' self-fulfillment in civilian life and help them successfully apply their acquired skills in a new direction. Furthermore, our heroes can receive free individual career support at the 'Work of Russia' personnel centers—to undergo career guidance, receive an individual employment support plan, and choose a desired profession that will be in demand in the labor market in the coming years," said Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova.

Since 2025, free retraining and professional development under the national "Personnel" project has been available in 360 in-demand specialties, ranging from industrial production and agriculture to IT and transportation. Over 100,000 people per year can gain new knowledge and successfully find employment upon completion of their training.

Since 2025, the All-Russian professional skills competition "Best in Profession" has become part of the national "Personnel" project and is held in two stages. Winners of the regional stages in each category converge on the capitals hosting the federal stages. The final competitions are held in various regions of Russia. The top finishers in the federal stages receive cash prizes: first place – 1 million rubles, second place – 500,000 rubles, and third place – 300,000 rubles.

The competition is organized by the Russian Ministry of Labor and Social Protection with the support of federal and regional government agencies, all-Russian trade union associations, and employers. The competition operator is the All-Russian Research Institute of Labor and Social Protection.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Opening the plenary session of the Council, Denis Manturov read a welcoming address from Russian President Vladimir Putin to the participants, organizers, and guests of the event. It stated, in part: "Relations between our countries are developing dynamically in the spirit of strategic partnership and alliance. Regional ties have traditionally been a significant component of these relations. These ties are actively supported at various levels. More than 40 interregional agreements are already in effect, providing conditions for the implementation of joint economic, social, and humanitarian projects, the opening of industrial parks and technology centers, and the holding of exhibitions and presentations. The Council of Regions provides an excellent opportunity for direct dialogue involving heads of central and local governments, entrepreneurs, experts, representatives of academia, universities, and public organizations. The agenda of this year's event includes current issues of cooperation in industry and agriculture, energy and e-commerce, transport and logistics, culture, and education."

Denis Manturov, in turn, noted that almost all Russian regions are already involved in trade and economic cooperation with their Uzbek colleagues.

"It's important to translate the agreements reached into roadmaps, planning specific actions and deadlines for their implementation," the First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized. In practical terms, he noted the work being done in a number of Russian regions to create new and develop existing trading houses and wholesale distribution centers.

"Electronic marketplaces are becoming increasingly important in promoting national goods. Russian marketplaces like Ozon and Wildberries are expanding their physical presence in Uzbekistan. They're opening pickup points and building the infrastructure for sorting and logistics centers," added Denis Manturov.

Comprehensive efforts at the national and regional levels, coupled with proactive business efforts, are yielding results. "Since 2019, trade turnover between Russia and Uzbekistan has more than doubled, approaching a trillion rubles. And this year, we're seeing another 7% growth," said Denis Manturov.

Companies from both countries are promoting joint industrial projects. Among the key initiatives of the past two years, Denis Manturov noted the launch of crop protection chemical production in the Samarkand region and fiberglass production in Nukus.

To increase the number of such projects, special attention is being paid to developing mechanisms to support cooperation. The Russian-Uzbek investment platform is intended to be a key element of this work. It was established at the request of the heads of state. A list of promising projects has already been prepared, the first of which are expected to receive funding in the near future.

Among other priority areas of joint work, Denis Manturov named cooperation in transport, the energy sector, and technical regulation. He emphasized the particular importance of developing humanitarian ties and expanding tourism exchanges.

Jamshid Khodjayev began his speech by delivering a greeting from the President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev. The President of Uzbekistan's greeting stated, in part: "The mechanism for interaction between regions, established seven years ago, has proven its effectiveness and practical relevance. In this regard, a decision was made to transform the forum into a Council of Regions, the first meeting of which took place last year during the state visit of the President of the Russian Federation to Uzbekistan." Shavkat Mirziyoyev called the participation of regional leaders from Russia and Uzbekistan, as well as representatives of the business communities of both countries, clear evidence of the growing role of the regions in strengthening mutually beneficial cooperation. "I emphasize that the regions play a key role in achieving our strategic goals and should become the main drivers of practical cooperation," the President of Uzbekistan said in his greeting.

"The comprehensive strategic partnership and alliance between Uzbekistan and Russia are based on long-standing ties and are rich in significant historical events. In the context of geopolitical instability and global economic challenges, the key to addressing a range of strategic challenges facing our countries lies in the regions, which are becoming the true driving force behind our countries' development. I am confident that the forum will open a new horizon for cooperation and launch joint projects aimed at sustainable economic development in the regions and improving the living standards and well-being of citizens of Uzbekistan and Russia," emphasized Jamshid Khodjaev.

The plenary session of the council featured speeches from the governors of the Moscow, Arkhangelsk, Omsk, and Tomsk regions, the heads of the Tashkent, Bukhara, and Surkhandarya regions, the Republic of Karakalpakstan, and the leadership of the Russian-Uzbek Business Council and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

Following the meeting, a ceremony to exchange signed documents took place in the presence of the two countries' deputy prime ministers. In total, more than 30 agreements were signed between Russian and Uzbek regions on cooperation in trade, economic, scientific, technical, social, humanitarian, cultural, and other areas.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Ekaterina Kostenko, a third-year student at the RUDN University Institute of Ecology (major in "Energy and Resource-Saving Processes in Chemical Engineering, Petrochemistry, and Biotechnology"), received an award in the "Creators" category from Norilsk Nickel. The company recognizes the leaders of its "People of the Territory" social capital development program: those who make a real difference in the lives of people and cities.

Our student dreamed of working at Norilsk Nickel since high school, and began internships there during her first year. We spoke with Ekaterina to learn how she became involved in community service, the company's projects she's participated in, and her plans for the future.

How did you get involved in social activism, and how long have you been involved? What motivated you?

I became involved in community service in the seventh grade, after retiring from professional sports. At first, I just wanted to keep myself busy. Only later did I realize what a great opportunity it was for development and building a future career.

Tell us more about your achievements in receiving the Norilsk Nickel "Creators" award.

For seven years, I participated in all of the company's social and charitable projects. Over time, I became the organizer of several of them. Among my favorite projects, I'd like to highlight "Peremena," which helps schoolchildren choose a career and discover their talents.

Did your academic focus intersect with the projects you participated in? Did the knowledge and skills you gained at RUDN University help you in your social work?

Enrolling in the ecology program at RUDN University allowed me to integrate environmental initiatives into company projects and, through my own example, help schoolchildren choose their careers. Also, being a student monitor at the university really helped me develop my leadership skills, which I actively use in my work.

What was your most memorable moment at the awards ceremony? How did you feel when you received the award?

The entire ceremony took the form of an immersive performance, featuring the nominees' real-life stories. The most memorable moment was the story of an entrepreneur who built his own sports center when it was practically impossible in his hometown. As he accepted the award, one thought pervaded his mind: "It was all worth it. I'm truly making a contribution to the development of my home region and the people who live there!"

What are your future plans? Do you have any ideas for new projects, perhaps related to your future professional work in ecology?

I'd like to further develop the company's environmental projects. For example, the environmental marathon "Poneslos," where employees and their families work on greening the area, promoting environmental education, and studying biodiversity in the Far North.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The regional round of the first All-Russian competition for international students, "StudRussia," was held at the Polytechnic University. The competition is organized by the National University of Science and Technology MISIS with the support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation to support talented and active international students with achievements in science, creativity, sports, community service, and volunteerism.

As a co-organizer of the competition, the Polytechnic University hosted 140 winners of the qualifying round from 32 universities in the Northwestern Federal District, including the Kirov Military Medical Academy, the Ilya Repin St. Petersburg Academy of Arts, the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Vologda State University, the ITMO National Research University, the St. Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation, and the Ukhta State Technical University. Of course, Polytechnic University students were also among the participants.

The geography of the participants was also vast: we welcomed representatives from 30 countries, including India, Pakistan, Morocco, Ghana, Ecuador, Uganda, Nigeria, Mexico, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Brazil, China, Mongolia, Iran, Palestine, Tunisia, Algeria, Vietnam, and others. Some international students carried the flag of their country, while others wore elements of traditional costume. Overall, the atmosphere at the Technopolis Polytech research facility was very international for two days.

At the opening ceremony, Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation Olga Petrova thanked Polytechnic University via videoconference for being one of the co-organizers and the international students for their courage and decision to participate in the competition.

"Dear students, of course, not everyone will be a winner, but each of you will definitely grow in your skills, get to know our country and the Russian language even better, and share your unique experiences with us," said Olga Viktorovna. "This is the first time we've held such a competition, and I'm confident it will open up even more opportunities for international students studying in Russia!"

Participants were also greeted by Maxim Pasholikov, Vice-Rector for Information, Youth Policy, and Security, and Roman Volkovsky, Acting Chairman of the Committee on Youth Policy and Interaction with Public Organizations of St. Petersburg.

Maxim Pasholikov briefly described how international students study and relax at the Polytechnic University and assured that the university will do everything possible to ensure that participants in the first StudRussia competition also have a comfortable, convenient, and interesting experience.

Roman Volkovsky noted that this event is of great importance to the St. Petersburg government: "This isn't just a competition, but also an opportunity to unite students from different countries who study, create, and build in Russia. This is the future of international relations. You are a shining example of how science and friendship erase the boundaries between different countries and continents. In turn, we strive to make your stay in our country comfortable, productive, and promising. For us, there are no international or Russian students; we are young people who, with their creativity, intelligence, and hands-on work, are making the future of our country, our society, and the entire world better, brighter, and kinder. Thank you very much for this, and, of course, we are ready to support you in all your initiatives."

After the plenary session, the participants were divided into groups according to their nominations. There were six: "The Future of Science," "Leaders of Generations," "Conquerors of Peaks," "Kindness Without Borders," "Inspired by Creativity," and "Russian Language and Culture." Some participants applied for several nominations at once, and for good reason—such dedication earned them the highest award, the Grand Prix for "Best International Student."

On the first day of the competition, amazing things happened in various NIK auditoriums: in one, foreign guests of the Polytechnic shared their experiences learning Russian and professed their love for Russian literature. In another, they sang songs in their native languages and played folk instruments. In the Kapitsa conference hall, young scientists presented reports on their research projects and initiatives. In the Semenov auditorium, they talked about volunteer work and proposed ideas for improving sports infrastructure in Russia's northern regions.

Once all the projects had been presented to the jury and the first day's business program had concluded, the participants took a bus to explore St. Petersburg. Those who study and live here eagerly shared the sights of the city on the Neva with their new friends from other regions of the Northwestern Federal District. The students saw Smolny and St. Isaac's Cathedrals, the Peter and Paul Fortress, drove along Nevsky Prospekt, and visited Arts Square, the Spit of Vasilievsky Island, and the Piskarevsky Memorial.

The second day at the Polytechnic University began with a lecture by Andrey Mashkovtsev, Doctor of Historical Sciences, from the Russian Society "Knowledge," about Russia's achievements in the 21st century. The students were then invited on a tour of the SPbPU campus, including the Main Building, the Tower, and the Sports Complex.

And now the most important moment had arrived—the summing up of the results and the awards ceremony. The participants of the district stage had become very close during their time together and were thrilled to celebrate each other's successes.

For the convenience of international students, the competition is held in both Russian and English, so the jury also selected winners and runners-up in two tracks—Russian and English. Here's how the placements were distributed.

The business game "IT – the hands and eyes of the engineer of the future" was held at the State University of Management.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On October 22, 2025, the State University of Management hosted a business game, "IT – the Hands and Eyes of the Engineer of the Future," for students in grades 10-11 as part of the RosGeoTech Advanced Engineering School (AES) project at the M.D. Millionshchikov Grozny State Petroleum Technological University (GSOTU).

Before the master class, Maxim Pletnev, Head of the Scientific Research Coordination Department at the State University of Management, introduced the guests to the extensive work of the RosGeoTech Scientific School, which covers such areas as alternative energy, power engineering, oil and gas, as well as autonomous unmanned and robotic innovative systems.

Andrey Luzhetsky, head of the RosGeoTech School of Industrial and Applied Sciences, addressed the participants with a welcoming speech.

The central part of the event was a presentation by Dmitry Taldykin, a junior research fellow at the Reverse Engineering Laboratory. He vividly demonstrated how neural networks are transforming from a tool for automating routine tasks into intelligent partners capable of unlocking human potential.

"We're stopping asking AI, 'What can you do for me?' and starting asking, 'How can you help me think better, solve more complex problems, and learn faster?'" Dmitry Taldykin began his presentation.

He presented a project to the students to create a personalized learning system based on large-scale language models. The students learned how AI adapts educational content in real time to each student's cognitive style and learning speed, transforming passive information acquisition into an active dialogue.

The topic of "cognitive enhancement" was of particular interest to the audience. Dmitry Taldykin discussed the development of brain-computer interfaces that enable the use of AI to expand working memory and accelerate big data analysis. The students were able to see how neural network algorithms can be used to identify hidden patterns in scientific research and generate new hypotheses.

The scientist also discussed the role of AI in developing critical thinking. He explained the concept of "intellectual counterbalance"—when AI doesn't provide ready-made answers, but rather challenges human arguments, helping to test their strength and avoid cognitive biases.

The lecture clearly demonstrated that the future lies in the symbiosis of human and artificial intelligence. The knowledge gained motivates young researchers not to fear technology but to actively engage in its development, so that they can collaborate with machines to solve problems currently beyond the capabilities of either type of intelligence alone. The event aimed to foster a new generation of leaders prepared to collaborate with advanced technologies.
