Zhanna Zhusupova, vice-rector for academic affairs, said about this in her speech: "Information literacy is a requirement of the century. So it's a common interest for everyone to arm themselves with knowledge. We, in turn, offer this platform for representatives of the older generation of the institute. The fact is, there are people who become victims of Internet fraudsters. Especially recently, there are cases of loans being issued on behalf of pensioners. On this basis, we began to conduct preliminary explanatory work for our employees."
