At the award ceremony, Elena Gladkova, the chief accountant of UZPM, thanked the graduates for their trust and high level of training: "We were pleased to see how interested, professional, and responsible you were in solving real production problems, and your work went beyond the scope of your studies. Many of your ideas have already been implemented at the company."
UZPM highly appreciated the contribution of the teachers to the effective system of training specialists. The practice-oriented approach implemented at the college ensures a high level of professional adaptation of graduates and their readiness to solve production tasks from the very first days of work.
During the event, UZPM representatives presented the graduates with letters of appreciation and corporate gifts, including notebooks and backpacks featuring the company logo.

We have a thriving Working Youth Council, a vibrant corporate culture, and regularly organize sports and outdoor events for our employees. All of this makes UZPM an attractive place to launch a career", said Dmitry Pylev, UZPM General Director.
