Private sector companies involved in the educational sector of the economy are taking an active part in creating an innovative educational environment, through creation of favorable learning conditions for the Turkmen youth.

Starting from February 2018, instructors of “Dalchyn” education center are taking part in upgrading their qualification. The main feature of these training sessions is that they are delivered remotely by the experts of the Cambridge University through on – line sessions.

Distance learning training sessions for Dalchyn instructors had started from rehearsal of general teaching aspects, in particular key factors contributing to efficient training, lesson planning etc. Gradually, subject matters of the sessions became focused on particular subjects, which enabled implementation of various teaching methods and approaches in stages.

Training sessions for Dalchyn trainers were held in different formats, ranging from email exchanges with Cambridge specialists to online video conferencing.
