Characteristics, goals and objectives of the project

The pilot project of KUTEL will be aimed at strengthening the role of higher education (HE) in Kazakhstan, a strategic tool for stimulating economic growth, increasing the level of employment, and consequently the quality of life and social welfare of citizens. KUTEL promotes the reform and modernization of HE through the introduction of the national Quality Assurance System (QA) for technology-based education (TBE), new and complex in the EU and Kazakhstan, the introduction of accreditation standards, guidelines and procedures for QA courses and training programs for TBE at the national/international level.


Thus, KUTEL will contribute to increasing the number of students, despite the difficult conditions of unstable economic growth, through the widespread use of e-learning methods and high-quality education.

Key results that meet existing needs and support national/EU priorities:

Expected effect:

Direct beneficiaries responsible for the modernization of the HE are involved in a pilot 85-minute training, those who participate in each national development event (about 40/50 participants at the 1st and about 80 at the 2nd); 6000 visitors to the KUTEL website; 150 participants at the final conference; database contacts with an estimate of 100/150 per project country. About 50 teachers and 5 government agencies from Kazakhstan partners were involved in the preparatory stage.
