Cooperation Between SDU University and Teach For Qazaqstan: Preparing Future Teachers for Market Demands
The Faculty of Education and Humanities at SDU University has successfully implemented the EDU Career Incubator initiative — a preparatory stage for the dual education program EDU Career, aimed at developing the professional skills of future educators before their internships in schools and other educational institutions.
This initiative was supported by Teach For Qazaqstan, which became an important partner of the project. From March 6 to May 1, 2025, TFQ experts conducted a two-month training program for 330 third-year students of our faculty. These sessions focused on building key competencies essential for future teachers.
Based on the results of the training, including assignments and selection criteria, 204 students successfully advanced to the next stage — participation in the EDU Career program, which offers a unique opportunity for internships within a dual education framework at leading public and private schools in Kazakhstan.
We express our sincere gratitude to Teach For Qazaqstan for their valuable contribution to the preparation of future professionals and look forward to continued fruitful cooperation.
