theoretical study, needed for the work on new machinery and technologies,
and theoretical study of advanced labor and production management;
practical training, including training on operating enterprises (with possible
overseas training);
participation in start-up works of the particular equipment.

according to the curricula approved by the head technical supervisor of the
enterprise for each position. The amount of time at each stage of training will be
