Under the academic mobility program, students from various regions of Kazakhstan are gaining hands-on experience at partner colleges and industrial facilities. Eurasian Resources Group (ERG) has announced a new phase of collaboration with the Alliance of Colleges, a community of technical and vocational education organizations established with ERG’s support in 2022.
This month, a group of students from the Kentau Multidisciplinary College in the Turkistan regioncompleted a two-week internship at the Khromtau Mining and Technical College. During the program, they studied 14 production-related topics, including occupational safety, electrical safety, and fire safety. The training incorporated augmented reality technologies, such as simulators for portable drilling machines and dump trucks, providing students with immersive learning experiences. Additionally, the students underwent practical training at the Don Mining and Processing Plant, operated by Kazchrome, a subsidiary of ERG.
The academic mobility initiative enables ERG to strengthen its collaboration with educational institutions in regions where the company operates. ERG emphasizes that this program is part of a comprehensive workforce development strategy aligned with the national government’s goals. Notably, 2025 has been declared the Year of Working Professions in Kazakhstan, highlighting the importance of vocational training and skilled labor.
