Non-formal education is an integral part of the modern educational landscape

Non-formal education plays a key role in personal development and social progress. The importance of non-formal education lies in the fact that it provides opportunities for learning and growth outside formal curricula and educational institutions. This contributes to the development of skills, enrichment of knowledge and broadening horizons, which in turn contributes to individual success and socio-cultural diversity. Non-formal education is therefore an integral part of today’s educational landscape, enriching learning experiences and providing opportunities for continuous learning and development.

The International Education Corporation (IEC) provides a variety of non-formal education opportunities by introducing the following aspects of non-formal education:

Courses and Master Classes: IEC organizes a variety of courses and master classes in different subjects and fields of study. Students and learners can learn foreign languages, acquire computer skills, immerse themselves in the arts and other interesting fields.

Educational Projects and Initiatives: The University is involved in various educational projects and initiatives that promote knowledge and cultural exchange. This may include organizing lectures, exhibitions and forums.

Clubs and social organizations: The IEC supports many clubs and social organizations, creating a platform for students and teachers to share knowledge and experience.

Thus, by bringing together KazGASA and KAU, the International Education Corporation (IEC), provides a variety of non-formal educational opportunities, contributing to the personal development and knowledge enrichment of its students and of all students in Kazakhstan.
