YEREVAN, OCTOBER 17, NOYAN TAPAN. Issues concerning reforms being
made in the higher educational institutional system of Armenia
within the framework of the Bologna process were discussed during
the working consultation held by Robert Kocharian, the President of
the Republic of Armenia, on October 17, which was attended by Levon
Mkrtchian, the RA Minister of Education and Science, and the rectors
of the state higher educational institutions. The President mentioned
that fundamental reforms in the sphere of economy have already been
implemented, which cannot be said about the spheres of education and
culture, where there is still a lot to be done.
Levon Mkrtchian touched upon the work being implemented in the
direction of creating a common educational field and the three
main problems, at the solution of which the reforms are directed:
investment of credit system, three-degree educational system, and
formation of quality estimation system.
The rectors of higher educational institutions presented the existing
problems and tasks, as well as the work done in that direction.
Robert Kocharian attached importance to the fact that all the higher
educational institutions implement reforms proportionately, otherwise,
in his words, if some of them advance and some leg behind, the process
cannot have desirable results.
According to the information provided to Noyan Tapan by the RA
President's Press Office, the problem concerning the fact that
graduates of higher educational institutions should be provided
with jobs was also spoken about during the meeting. In this respect
importance was attached to the conformity of HEI professions with
the demands of the labour market.
