    The Council of Europe will allocate 15 million euros to the Government
    of Armenia for reforming the secondary professional education sphere,
    Head of the Armenian Ministry of Education and Science Department for
    Secondary Special Education Samvel Pipoyan said at a press conference,
    Monday.

    CE program will be implemented in three stages within three
    years from 2008 to 2010. The first stage will include fundamental
    reconstruction and re-equipment of the professional technical colleges
    in Armenia. Then, over 3,500 teachers will be retained. The final
    stage of the program provides for elaboration of an educational and
    methodical concept meeting European requirements in the sphere.

    The concept will reckon with real need in labor force in the labor
    market.

    Pipoyan said the ministry's calculations showed that the real
    demand for labor force and the data of employment agencies are quite
    different.

    At present, there are 81 state and 22 private secondary special
    educational establishments in Armenia. The number of relevant students
    is some 34,000 people. Some 5,000 teachers work in these educational
    establishments at average salary of 25,000 drams ($73).
