The Prime Minister toured the exhibition and met with winners and runners-up of national professional skills championships, the "Master of the Year" competition, students, and directors of leading clusters within the federal "Professionalism" project.

The secondary vocational education (SVE) system is the largest educational infrastructure in the country, including 3,200 vocational educational organizations and 376 higher education organizations implementing SVE programs.

In 2025, SPO celebrates its 85th anniversary (on October 2, 1940, the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR "On the State Labor Reserves of the USSR" was adopted, the first schools for factory training, vocational and railway schools for training workers appeared).

Since 2022, October 2, in accordance with the Presidential Decree of July 25, 2022 No. 496, has been officially declared the Day of Secondary Vocational Education.

Secondary vocational education plays a strategic role in the country's development, developing human resources for industry, technology, and social infrastructure. The system employs 199,474 teaching staff, including 147,303 teachers and 18,779 vocational training instructors.

In the 2025/2026 academic year, 1.2 million students were enrolled in secondary vocational education programs. 62.5% of ninth-grade school graduates choose to study in secondary vocational education programs. The total number of students enrolled in all forms of education at the beginning of the academic year exceeded 3.85 million.

In 2025, approximately 1,004,500 people graduated from secondary vocational education programs, and the employment rate of college graduates today reaches 80.5%, indicating the high efficiency of training personnel in line with employer requirements.

To help students in grades 6–11 choose their future profession, a unified career guidance model was introduced in every school starting September 1, 2023, covering more than 8.5 million students and involving 13,400 employers.

A significant change in the secondary vocational education system is the implementation of the federal project "Professionalism" starting in 2022, which provides for the formation of secondary vocational education clusters, as well as a set of measures to modernize the system in the interests of economic and industrial development.

In 2025, 506 clusters across 24 economic sectors will operate in 86 regions, with more than 2,400 employer organizations participating.

To attract internship recipients to the secondary vocational education system, the federal "Professionality" project offers continuing professional education programs for workers returning from production, prize winners, and winners of professional skills championships. More than 2,200 students have already completed this training.

A significant development mechanism for the secondary vocational education system is the professional skills championship movement, which includes:

— high technology championship;

— championship in professional skills “Professionals”;

— championship in professional skills among disabled people and people with limited health capabilities "Abilympics".

A new initiative is the Abilympics Professional Skills Championship, a series of events held at the federal level that includes competency-based competitions, professional skills tests, business, cultural, and other events among disabled SVO participants.

In 2025, the professional skills championships will reach over 1 million people, including over 330,000 college students and schoolchildren aged 14 and older. The championship movement is supported by over 7,500 employers.

The All-Russian competition for teachers in the secondary vocational education system, "Master of the Year," has been held since 2021 to reward teachers, enhance the prestige of the teaching profession, promote cutting-edge ideas in education and training, and study and implement best teaching practices.

In 2025, 9,831 teaching staff took part in the competition, with 89 teachers from all constituent entities of the Federation participating in the final stage.

The competition finals will take place from September 29 to October 2 in Kursk, the hometown of the 2024 winner, Dmitry Medvedev, director of the Kursk College of Information Technology.

From the transcript:

M. Mishustin: Good afternoon, dear friends!

First of all, I'd like to take this opportunity to congratulate you, your colleagues, all the students, and all the faculty on the anniversary of the secondary vocational education system. Three years ago, the President proposed celebrating SVE Day. I hope it has already become a good tradition for you.

The secondary vocational education system trains specialists without whom no economic or industrial sector can develop. We just saw at the exhibition what a difficult journey the vocational education system has traveled over the past 85 years. I already said today, greeting the students at the "Master of the Year" competition, that, of course, there is no such thing as a secondary education system. These systems, I believe, are vestiges of the past, the 1990s. Part of today's exhibition was dedicated to that period.

College graduates now receive an excellent education—a professional education that the country needs. It's an education that enables young people to develop, to build the country's industrial and economic shield, and to help achieve the national development goals set by the President.

Today, our country has over 3,200 colleges, attended by approximately 4 million young people. They offer careers in any of 500 specialties across all key economic sectors. Incidentally, today's exhibit showcased professions that were once offered through the secondary vocational education system in the Soviet Union. These are completely different professions from different sectors of the economy. Today, you can also obtain a wide variety of professions—from modern specialties in information technology, software development, and nuclear energy to medicine, education, and more.

To be continued.

Secondary Vocational Education Day is celebrated annually on October 2.

Dear friends!

Congratulations on Secondary Vocational Education Day.

In today's world, one of the key tasks is training qualified workers for key economic sectors and leading companies. Russian technical schools and colleges are annually introducing the most in-demand specialties and programs, and implementing cutting-edge educational standards.

The system of secondary vocational education continues to be consistently improved. Priority is being given to the implementation of the federal project "Professionalism." Training and production clusters have been created where students not only gain theoretical knowledge but also hone their skills using the latest equipment and develop competitive skills that meet modern requirements.

And this is largely due to the remarkable teachers, mentors, and vocational training instructors. You help develop the talents and abilities of those who will shape our future and ensure technological sovereignty, and you instill in students an interest in subjects that develop professional competencies. By your own example, you inspire young people to achieve lofty goals. Your dedicated work, passion, and creativity deserve sincere respect and recognition.

I wish you success in all your endeavors, breakthrough discoveries for the benefit of the country, health and all the best.

Russia's construction industry continues to develop the infrastructure of significant cultural and historical sites. Reconstruction of the restoration workshop building at the Leo Tolstoy Museum Estate "Yasnaya Polyana" in the Tula Region has been completed, as announced by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

Leo Tolstoy's Yasnaya Polyana Estate Museum in the Tula Region

"The development of museum infrastructure is crucial for preserving cultural heritage. The construction of new buildings and the renovation of existing ones allow us to expand collections, create additional exhibition spaces, and improve visitor experiences. An example of such work is the Leo Tolstoy Estate Museum in the Tula Region, where infrastructure development is underway. The reconstruction of the restoration workshop building has been completed, and a certificate of compliance with design documentation has been received," said Marat Khusnullin.

The two-story restoration workshop building is designed to preserve the estate's historic appearance. It will host cultural and educational events, an exhibition hall, and interactive workshops.

"The reconstruction of the storage facility building is also planned for completion by the end of 2025. The three-story building will house exhibitions and will also house the estate's collections. Work is currently underway on the facility to adjust the low-current systems, install terminal equipment, complete the interior finishing, and test the air conditioning system," noted Karen Oganesyan, General Director of the Unified Customer Production and Consulting Company.

In addition, two more facilities will be built on the Yasnaya Polyana site: a festival center and a visitor reception and services center. Preparatory work is currently underway at the festival center construction site.

Yasnaya Polyana is the family estate of the great Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, where he was born and spent most of his life. The estate's memorial landscapes (gardens, parks, ponds, and forests planted by the writer) and buildings from the late 18th and early 19th centuries are maintained in their original historical form.

Vitaly Savelyev: Publishing odometer data will accelerate the implementation of driverless trucks.

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – Government of the Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The Russian Ministry of Transport and JSC GLONASS will make public data on the actual mileage of highly automated freight vehicles. The statistics are being collected online by the unified identification system for driverless vehicles based on ERA-GLONASS, which is being created at the request of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

To date, more than 60 autonomous trucks on the M-11 "Neva" and Central Ring Road highways are connected to the state information system. Information will be posted on the websites of the agency and the ERA-GLONASS operator.

Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev and Minister of Transport Andrei Nikitin supported the corresponding proposal from JSC GLONASS.

"Collecting qualitative indicators, including accident-free mileage and distance traveled without the operator taking control, will become a tool for assessing technological maturity and will accelerate the transition from experiments to industrial use of driverless trucks on the country's highways," noted Vitaly Savelyev.

Over the two and a half years of the federal project "Unmanned Logistics Corridors," the mileage of unmanned trucks has exceeded 8.5 million km.

"A public mileage counter for driverless trucks is more than just a number on a screen. It's clear proof of the ability of domestic developers to create and scale cutting-edge transport technologies that will shape the future of logistics in Russia. This initiative is fully aligned with our strategic goal of creating the world's first universal solution for identifying all driverless vehicles based on ERA-GLONASS. Transparency and openness of information allow all parties—from regulators to the general public—to see real successes and progress in the development of driverless vehicles, which is critical for the widespread adoption of this technology. The public counter will record the achievement of the indicators necessary for scaling driverless logistics and help objectively assess technological maturity," emphasized Andrey Nikitin.

According to Alexey Raikevich, CEO of JSC GLONASS, this counter will initially display quantitative data, with qualitative metrics to be added later. Objective data verified by ERA-GLONASS will increase public and government trust in the technology and ensure transparency in the use of unmanned aerial vehicles.

According to the draft federal law on automated vehicles, the procedure for connecting to the unified identification system based on the ERA-GLONASS state information system will be established by the Russian government. Its commercial operation will begin in March 2026.

RUDN University students learned about the intricacies of the auditor's profession during a business simulation

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Peoples'Friendship University of Russia

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

RUDN University economics students learned how to verify dates in documents and find optimal solutions to problems during the business simulation game "Internal Auditor of an Industrial Enterprise 2025," which took place in late September in the coworking space of the main building.

Ten teams from our university, the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, MISIS, the Russian State Geological Prospecting University, P.G. Demidov Yaroslavl State University, and the Russian New University competed under the watchful eyes of experts in their skills in preparing high-quality audit reports. The game was organized by RUDN University and the Institute of Internal Auditors.

A friendly team

"The competition atmosphere was relaxed. Everything was new and very interesting for us. The most unexpected thing was that, at the end of the event, it turned out we'd been paying completely attention to the wrong details, which the expert later highlighted. Naturally, we were a little disappointed, but the main thing is that we understood what auditors do and what they pay attention to in their work," said Alina Yunusova, a third-year Bachelor's student in the Economics Department of RUDN University (Accounting and Auditing program).

The RUDN team was very well-coordinated, even though it was their first time working together. Things really took off as soon as the roles were assigned.

"From the very first minute, Alina showed initiative and became our leader, which we were all delighted about. On her command, we began analyzing documents and immediately got to work. Everyone made a significant contribution: Zakhar and Vika handled the contracts, Elina and I handled the calculations, and Alina coordinated the entire process. We never argued once and became a close-knit team," says Akinai Kylychbekova, a third-year Bachelor's student in the Economics Department of RUDN University (Accounting and Auditing major).

"Without a doubt, the studies and knowledge we gained at RUDN University in our first and second years of the Economics Department helped us throughout the entire business simulation. This was especially true during the interview with the company we were auditing. We had to carefully and, most importantly, clearly formulate the questions we were asking," says Vika Volobueva, a third-year undergraduate student in the Economics Department at RUDN University (Accounting and Auditing).

As the students noted, the most difficult part of the game for them was understanding the scheme by which the money is divided between the chief engineer and the inspector.

"The competition taught us that we need to carefully review documents and pay attention to dates, not just business processes; to build logical chains and find optimal solutions," said Zakhar Leonov, a third-year Bachelor's student in the Faculty of Economics at RUDN University (Accounting and Auditing major).

Advice from a professional

The teams' performance during the game was observed and assessed by leading specialists and heads of departments responsible for internal audit, control, and risk management from companies such as Ozon, AFK Sistema, PhosAgro, Rostec, and others. The teams had the opportunity to interact with the experts and ask them questions.

"We had the opportunity to speak with representatives of Ozon and IVA. They gave us important advice: 'Try to learn everything through practice, as lectures are often difficult to understand.' They emphasized that participating in this game gave us much more than just a theoretical understanding of the lessons," said Elina Askerbekova, a third-year undergraduate student in the Faculty of Economics at RUDN University (Accounting and Auditing).

The students emphasized that the presence of so many people who are involved in their profession further motivated them to achieve good results.

The winners of the game were students from the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation. However, the RUDN team wasn't upset about not finishing first. According to the students, the competition helped them immerse themselves in their profession and provided them with a wealth of useful knowledge for the future.

"Based on the game, we realized that the auditor's profession is the work of an investigator among contracts and a detective in accounting," says Zakhar Leonov.

"We are grateful for the opportunity to participate in this project. We learned in detail what internal audit is, and everyone was able to discover this profession for themselves and determine whether it's right for them," says Alina Yunusova.

Emergency Preparedness: Polytechnic University Practices Terrorist Attack and Fire

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

A training exercise codenamed "Polytechnic Shield 2025" was held at the Polytechnic University's international campus at 28 Grazhdansky Prospekt. Its goal was to practice staff responses in the event of an emergency or terrorist attack.

The first stage of the training included a situation involving the detection and defusal of an improvised explosive device.

According to the legend, the attacker, acting on orders from the intelligence services of a hostile country, infiltrated the campus of the university's Graduate School of International Educational Programs. While attempting to gain entry to Building No. 16, he encountered a security guard, changed his plan, and planted an improvised explosive device near the service entrance to the cafeteria. He then retreated to a safe distance, blending into the crowd.

A vigilant employee passing by saw a suspicious object and reported the discovery to a security guard in the building and to the University Security Center.

A security guard activated the panic button. Following established procedures, the Security Center duty officer alerted the emergency services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Russian National Guard, and the Ministry of Emergency Situations, and also reported the incident to the Vice Rector for Information, Youth Policy, and Security and the Chair of the University Emergency Situations Committee.

A patrol team from the U-Piter security organization arrived, cordoned off the area where the explosive device was located, placed a "Fountain" explosion localizer next to it, and organized the evacuation of everyone in the building. The emergency alert system was used for this purpose.

The Rosgvardia rapid response team arrived and defused the explosive device.

The second phase of the training focused on fire suppression. The "Frese" robotic fire suppression platform, developed by young engineers from the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials, and Transport, came in handy.

According to the story, a car parked in the center of the playground caught fire after an improvised explosive device exploded. A university employee noticed the fire and reported it to the U-Piter security guard station in Building 16. The guard called 7 921 940-66-75 and notified the senior administrator of the University Security Center (USC).

The senior administrator notified the emergency services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Russian National Guard, and the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the university's vice-rector for information, youth policy, and security, and the chairman of the emergency commission.

A fire brigade from the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for St. Petersburg arrived at the scene. A firefighting robot from the Institute of Fire and Rescue (IMMiT) assisted in extinguishing the fire.

During the third stage of training, Polytechnic employees and students were taught how to use primary fire extinguishing equipment: water, blankets, and fire extinguishers (powder, carbon dioxide, and air-emulsion).

Honorary Doctor Sergei Brilev: "The Polytechnic University is more than just a university."

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On October 2, a ceremonial meeting of the Academic Council took place, at which the mantle and diploma of Honorary Doctor of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University were presented to the president of the Global Energy Association (Moscow) and the Russian-Latin American Bering-Belinshausen Institute (Montevideo, Uruguay), journalist, and Doctor of Historical Sciences Sergei Brilev.

The title "Honorary Doctor of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University" is awarded to outstanding figures in science and technology, education, and culture, as well as leading specialists from Russia and abroad, for significant contributions to the development of cutting-edge fields of knowledge and scholarship, whose work contributes to the strategic development, expansion of areas of cooperation, and enhancement of the university's prestige. On June 26, 2025, members of the Academic Council unanimously voted to award the title "Honorary Doctor of SPbPU" to Sergei Brilev.

We have the deepest respect for our honorary doctors. They make a significant contribution to the development of education, science, culture, and the upbringing of youth, noted SPbPU Rector Andrey Rudskoy.

Polytechnic University and the Global Energy International Association, whose president is Sergey Brilev, have been collaborating since 2021, when the university hosted the announcement of the Global Energy Prize finalists. Energy is one of Polytechnic University's key areas of focus, so the Association's efforts to develop international research and projects and support innovation in the fuel and energy sector are crucial for the university.

Also in 2022, our university hosted an awards ceremony for the winners of the Young Scientist 4.0 program, which is being implemented by the Association jointly with Gazprom.

We are all grateful to Sergei Borisovich for his active involvement in the publication of a scientific journal of the same name at our university, in collaboration with the Global Energy Association, since 2022. This journal is included in the current version of the Unified State List of Scientific Publications—the "White List," emphasized Dmitry Karpov, SPbPU Academic Secretary, in his speech.

During the event, Sergei Brilev was also congratulated on his recent successful defense of his dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Historical Sciences on the topic "Interaction between Soviet and British intelligence services in Europe in 1941–1945."

At first glance, it seems strange that I, a doctor of historical sciences, have received such recognition at a technical university. But in reality, we're all working on the same thing," commented Sergey Brilev.

After receiving the gown and diploma of Honorary Doctor of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, Sergey Brilev addressed the members of the Academic Council. In his speech, he highlighted the opportunities for collaboration with the Polytechnic University and thanked everyone for the honor.

"The Polytechnic University is much more than just a university. It's a monument to a glorious history and a portal to a visible future," noted Sergey Brilev.

Sergey Brilev was born in Cuba in 1972 and earned two degrees from MGIMO and the Montevideo Institute of Foreign Languages. He is fluent in English and Spanish. He built a career in analytical journalism and worked for a long time at the Rossiya TV channel. He has authored numerous documentaries and publications. He has received various awards, including the Order of Honor and the Order of Friendship. He is a multiple finalist and winner of the TEFI award. His achievements have been repeatedly recognized with gratitude from the President of the Russian Federation.
