The purpose of the visit is also to study the work carried out in Uzbekistan on the implementation of the International Student Assessment Program (PISA), as well as the prospects for further expansion of cooperation with the OECD in this direction.

During the meeting, issues of monitoring the quality of education, measures for the practical implementation of the PISA program, providing special assistance to students in the use of knowledge and solving practical problems in the field of economics and production were discussed.

During the conversation, mechanisms for attracting additional investment in this area were also considered in order to ensure wide access of the population to educational services, improve their quality and improve the functioning of the national education system, including through targeted programs of the OECD.
