And in order to provide such an opportunity to everyone in the country, it is
necessary to develop a system of continuous education. This will strengthen Russia's human resources

profession, and adults — to change the direction of their activity. However,
the creation of such a system is a labor-intensive process that requires the
participation of experts of different profiles. The upcoming Forum is aimed at
doing just that: it will bring together government officials, scientists,
teachers, business leaders. I am sure that working together in close dialogue
we will be able to find effective ways to develop the system of continuing
