IOC Class graduates received their diplomas at Secondary School No. 9 in Ust-Kut.

This year, 23 students graduated from the IOC specialized class, including three medalists. The graduates plan to enroll in educational institutions, 90% of which are relevant to the company.

"Our company believes that investing in young people is an investment in sustainable development. We create conditions where every young specialist can grow, propose bold solutions, and become a leader," said Victoria Ilyukhina, Deputy Director General for Human Resources Management.

Throughout the academic year, students studied specialized subjects in depth, participated in business games, class hours with company employees, webinars, visited IOC facilities, and attended sessions at Irkutsk National Research Technical University. With the company's support, the students also visited the Perseus Educational Center for Gifted Children for the first time and took part in an intensive chemistry course.

The IOC Class was launched in Ust-Kut in 2018, and training is conducted according to special programs. During the project, 113 students graduated from the IOC Class, most of whom enrolled in state-funded places at specialized universities.
