During the speeches, the guarantors of educational programs focused in detail on the comments that were provided by external and internal stakeholders, on which of them and how they were taken into account in the EPP. The EPP guarantors also analyzed the proposals provided by students expressed during a meeting with the department’s teachers on April 16, and the results of an anonymous survey of students and graduates. Most of the proposals were taken into account in the updated EPP.

It should be noted that the meeting of the guarantors of educational and professional programs with students was quite lively and productive. Students had the opportunity to express their opinions on studying at various EPPs, and they also provided suggestions for improving the educational process.

When considering the EPP, special attention was paid to the structural and logical schemes and program learning outcomes that students should acquire for each educational component.

The project groups worked carefully to improve the EPP, took into account all comments and recommendations, and thereby significantly improved the content of the EPP.

Following the meeting of the Department of Professional Education, Restaurant and Tourism Business, all presented educational programs and corresponding curricula were approved. The department decided to recommend them for further consideration by the Academic Council of the Educational and Research Institute of Technologies and Trade.
