From December 18 to 30, 2025, Dastan Amangaliuly Amangaliyev, an Informatics teacher at the Geological Exploration College, completed an international professional development course on Artificial Intelligence for technical and vocational education teachers. The training was organized at the Wuhan Software Engineering Vocational College in Wuhan (China), Hubei Province.

This program is one of the first joint initiatives between educational institutions of the two countries. The main purpose of the course is to integrate artificial intelligence technologies into the educational process, as well as to further develop professional and technological cooperation between Kazakhstan and China.

During the training, participants became familiar with the key concepts of artificial intelligence, the main directions of AI model development, the fundamentals of building AI infrastructure, modern practical applications in the field of education, and aspects of developing AI-based projects.

The relevance of studying and applying artificial intelligence today is determined by its key role in transforming education, the economy, and the labor market. The use of AI technologies in the learning process contributes to improving the quality of education, developing students’ digital competencies, and preparing specialists who are in demand in the digital economy.

Participation in international professional development courses is particularly important for the system of technical and vocational education, as it allows the integration of modern global practices, the implementation of innovative teaching methods, and the adaptation of personnel training to current global requirements.

The successful completion of this training by our teacher is a significant achievement and a source of great pride for the college.
