On October 4, a conference for education specialists took place at the Culture Center in Ukhta. As usual, the conference was accompanied by the awarding of diplomas to the winners of the Gazprom Transgaz Ukhta prize and the granting of money certificates for academic performance, proactive attitude, and participation and victories in academic competitions and contests.
This year, ten pupils from the Ukhta-based Rassokhin Technical Lyceum, Lyceum No. 1 and Secondary school No. 15 won the Gazprom Transgaz Ukhta prize.
The conference participants and the distinguished students were greeted by Evgeny Gusev, Deputy Director General for Personnel Management at Gazprom Transgaz Ukhta: “The work of teachers and educators is invaluable. Teaching is an essential and indispensable job because it is you who help our children become better, kinder and more educated persons. The teachers and parents also contributed to the winning of awards granted to the children today.”
