The USPU delegation took part in the conference of "Actual problems of international postgraduate education: Status and Prospects", which was held on April 4-5 at the National Pedagogical Dragomanov University.

The Pavlo Tychyna USPU was represented by Yuliya Klymenko, the Head of the Foreign Citizens Department, Yuriy Orlyk, a Specialist of the same Department and Olena Baldynyuk, Associate Dean for Research Work.

The conference was attended by the representatives from 47 universities in Ukraine, as well as foreign colleagues from 14 countries among which Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Sudan, Nigeria, Belgium, United Kingdom, Ghana and others.

Participants discussed a number of issues including the legal regulation of adult education in Ukraine, problems and prospects of Ukrainian universities in recruiting and training foreign students, the demand for education managers who subsequently hold profession-related jobs abroad, and so on.

Representatives of the University established business contacts and conducted fruitful negotiations with the representatives of intermediary agencies and foreign educational institutions on admission of foreign citizens. We have established cooperation with Dr. Rocai, the President of the International Department of the International Association of Education, Science and Culture, Issa Diallo Sadio, the Vice - President of the African Council in Ukraine. The negotiations with Alihasan Gamzayev, the Director of Astara Pedagogical College in Azerbaijan, Zulfiya Batyrova , the representative of a recruitment company in Kazakhstan, Mr. Alfred Annan, the Director of the International Student Organization in Sudan as well as Mr. Richard Morgan, a representative of the British factoring company were also successful.

We hope that foreign citizens studies in Pavlo Tychyna USPU launched last year will find the further development due to the participation of the University in such international forums.
