“Modernization of the national education system does not mean its isolation.
For example, countries such as China and India have never been participants in the Bologna Process," TASS quoted him as saying during a speech in the State Duma.
He also said that Russia today cannot completely abandon the bachelor's and master's programs.
“Firstly, several million of our citizens have received bachelor’s degrees and they should not be deprived of the opportunity to continue their education if they want to continue this education during their lives,” Kucherenko explained.
As State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin noted earlier, the current education system in Russia needs to be changed, and it is impossible to blindly copy the Western model in this area.
The head of Rosobrnadzor, Anzor Muzaev, said that the Unified State Examination (USE) will be preserved during the transition to the national education system.
