Chernyshenko in Innopolis: personnel with 'digital skills' to determine everything
University rectors are told to go through the assessment screen and train a million IT specialists. And Innopolis obtains a new high status. The vaccine of mass digitalisation in the training of personnel for the Russian economy was prescribed by Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko at an off-site working meeting that finished late on 6 March in Innopolis near Kazan. The meeting brought together rectors of 500 Russian universities. Chernyshenko told them to urgently train a million IT specialists. But first, the rectors will go through a mass system of competence assessment — a comprehensive assessment.
