The head of the region Asain Baykhanov and the Chairman of the Anti-Corruption Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan Askhat Zhumagali took part in the work of the commission. The main issue on the agenda was the discussion of corruption risks in the field of education.

 

- As practice shows, there are systemic problems in the education sector that create conditions for corruption, - said Askhat Zhumagali, - therefore, this area requires constant improvement in terms of strengthening the digitalization of processes.

 

A pilot project of the information system "Unified Digital Accounting in educational organizations of the Pavlodar region" was presented to the participants of the IEC.
