(on the base of Message of the President of Tajikistan from 28.12.2024)
The message of the Leader of Nation, President of Republic Tajikistan, Honorable Emomali Rahmon to the noble people of Tajikistan, especially to intelligentsias of the country, is always full of good and joyful news, useful and timely proposals, and fresh spirit and inspiration for new and constructive work.
Over the many years since the country gained independence, the honorable Tajik people have well observed that each meeting and event at political level includes calls, instructions, proposals and forward-looking initiatives of the Head of State, periodically, year after year, a general program for development of all areas and spheres of the life of country's society and presentation of the state and nation at international level.
This is why significant development in all areas of the country is being ensured day by day, and our dear Tajikistan is being presented to the world from a weak country affected by the civil war to a prosperous and beautiful country with a wonderful history, culture, and nature. Considering that we consider this point as the main goal, strategy, and achievement of the state and nation in the direction of the state's foreign policy, the rapid development of high and vocational education sector requires us, the employees and leaders of the sector, to make efforts in developing international relations, connecting the sector to the international atmosphere of professionalism and new technologies, benefiting from the rich experience of specialists from developed partner countries, and at the same time attracting foreign investment to develop infrastructure and create a favorable educational environment in the sector.
The experience gained in this area shows that using effective and modern methods practiced in advanced foreign countries, it becomes easier and more convenient to conduct high-quality education, organize a targeted high and vocational educational process to train highly qualified specialists in labor and technical areas. The implementation of this strategic goal depends more than ever on the correct, high-quality and targeted establishment of cooperation relations with development partners from foreign countries, which determines the prospects for further activity and achieving the desired results in the field of education. Undoubtedly, as the Leader of Nation constantly notes and emphasizes, the key to achieving this noble goal is the organized and purposeful study of foreign languages (Russian and English), on which all further processes in the field of cooperation depend.
«In the context of stable development of international cooperation and the expansion of Tajikistan’s integration with the world community, the demand for specialists with a high level of professionalism and a good command of foreign languages, especially Russian and English, is increasing day by day. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce foreign language learning from the preschool education level. Together with the Committee on Primary and Secondary Vocational Education under the Government of Republic Tajikistan, the Ministry of Education and Science was tasked with taking decisive measures to revise standards and curricula, introduce new work units for foreign language teachers, develop modern educational materials, effectively use digital technologies, new methods of language learning, and improve the professional skills of teachers...» (from the Message)
It is worth noting that language learning in the field is inevitable and important for both teachers and employees, as well as for students. For this reason, finding effective ways and methods of teaching languages, developing programs and materials that make learning foreign languages easy and accessible for everyone, taking into account saving time and financial resources, is very important in this area.
In a situation where labor migration has become an inevitable and urgent global trend and process in our society today, and citizens of almost all countries of the world migrate to developed countries in order to earn income, having a profession without knowing popular foreign languages is not enough for effective and productive labor migration. Therefore, modern conditions of training in the field of high and vocational education require that all important aspects of preparing workers who are resistant to international labor competition be tested and experienced, so that professional economical, technical and engineering specialists trained in the country are capable of labor activity both for their own benefit and to meet the needs of the country's industry and its future development and growth.
It is precisely these aspects and aspects of development and progress in the field of high and vocational education, its compliance with the modern requirements of the relentless development of today's technology and equipment, and thus the improvement of the lives of the middle class, which constitute the vast majority of population of our country, that are constantly being mentioned and emphasized in messages, appeals and meetings of the Leader of Nation to the people of the country. It is not difficult to observe that over time, from time to time, in the process of the development of science and technology, these emphases and instructions of the Head of State acquire a more serious tone. In this regard, along with the study of foreign languages, development and improvement of international relations and attraction of foreign investment for development of the sector are considered one of the key and important directions.
Despite the fact that various international organizations and institutions are constantly conducting comprehensive activities in our country and are engaged in cooperation in various areas and spheres of the country's life, the Head of State's demand from specialists and employees of the sector is to further expand this process. Development of small multi-faceted projects with the aim of joining the international space, gaining awareness of direction of artificial intelligence and unmanned equipment, the use and experience robotics and other new phenomena of modern world of technology and engineering is a way that clarifies and opens the path for development of high and vocational education. We are fully confident that, inspired by the message of the Leader of Nation, President of the country, honorable Emomali Rahmon to the people of the country, direction of international relations will develop and grow more than ever this year, laying a favorable and stable foundation for development of education, which is considered a key stage in development of the country's industry and economy.
