The Government of Kazakhstan‘s Centre for International Programs, which manages the Bolashak Scholarship Program, has launched a new Fellowship Program in 2012 to allow professionals to carry out research and work-based training in other countries for a period of up to twelve months. The Program can include up to six months of prior intensive language training.

The new Fellowship Program is aimed at faculty and teaching staff in universities, and at engineers, scientists and medical professionals.

The Centre for International Programs has already established a range of international partnerships to deliver training under the Fellowship Program, but is interested to establish further such partnerships, including in the UK.
