As the biggest library if it is in disorder is not as useful as a small but well-arranged one, so you may accumulate a vast amount of knowledge but it will be of far less value to you than a much smaller amount if you have not thought it over for yourself.

A ceremonial certificate award ceremony for participants of the “Silver University” was held at the university

The “Silver University” is an international movement and educational model for people aged 50 and over, offering free courses in digital skills, languages, health, law, creativity, and other areas in order to ensure an active and fulfilling life, self-realization, and adaptation to modern conditions.

In 2025, the “Silver University” of Kozybayev University became a member of the Kazakhstan Association of Silver Universities and signed a memorandum with the International Association of Universities of the Third Age (AIUTA).

“Kozybayev University offers 6 courses as part of the ‘Silver University’ program. Next year, we will further expand their range. Training is conducted by semesters, twice a week. The academic year lasts from September 1 to June 1. During the autumn semester of the 2025–2026 academic year, three groups studied at our ‘Silver University’ in the areas of yoga, health-improving physical culture, and computer and digital literacy. A total of 28 people,” said Aigul Nurpeissova, Member of the Management Board for Academic Affairs.

All participants received certificates confirming the successful completion of training during the semester. Those interested will be able to continue their studies further, and a new intake will also be announced. Participants in the program may include university staff and retirees, as well as city residents aged 50 and over.
