Andrey Lavrov
Senior Director, HSE University
‘Today, as artificial intelligence and other technologies rewrite the rules of the game, people must remain at the centre—their goals, needs, and talents. For Russia’s continuing education community, it is crucial to answer one question: what should we teach adult professionals today, and how, so that they are still in demand on the labour market tomorrow? Our shared mission is to create educational solutions that do not simply follow trends but truly change people’s lives for the better, opening up new horizons and opportunities.
In 2026, the Forum on Adult Continuing Education (ACE) is taking place for the third time. Experience shows how vital it is for everyone involved in education and the economy to align their visions, share insights through open dialogue, and co-create effective tools.
This year, we are building more than just a platform for discussion—we are creating a space for tangible growth. Participants will have the opportunity to pursue professional development, while the top-performing ACE projects will earn recognition through our new special initiative.’
