5.3 The accounting of labor input of study is carried out on the volume of a taught material and measured in the credits being units of measure of labor costs of students, concrete results of training necessary for achievement. The credits reflect conditional “cost” of separate modules (elements) of an educational program. Into concept of the general labor input enter: lecture, practical (seminar), laboratory, studio researches, all types of professional practice, preparation and passing of total certification, independent work of the student.
5.4 The general labor input of theoretical training is defined by the list of studied subject matters.

For example, on specialties of group “Right” the discipline of “A right basis” is excluded; on economic specialties of “Social Sciences, Economy and Business” group – the discipline of “A basis of the economic theory” is transferred from a cycle of the general and educational disciplines to a cycle of basic disciplines.
On separate specialties of group “Humanitarian Sciences”, “Social sciences, economics and business”, “Natural sciences”, “Technical sciences and technologies” similar approaches on the disciplines of a cycle of the general of the same name also are applied. Thus released credits are transferred to a component for choice.

At implementation of professional training programs of the higher education the higher educational institution has the right:
– to transfer studying of disciplines from one semester to another, without breaking logic of development of the professional training program;
– to increase the volume of disciplines of an obligatory component at the expense of additional types of training;
– carrying out terms the practician are defined by higher education institution independently taking into account pre- requisites
6 Requirements to planning of the content of education
6.1 The organization of educational activity is carried out by means of planning of educational process and the content of education, a choice of ways of their carrying out.
6.2 The structure of the content of education is defined according to the established requirements to registration and measuring instruments of education: to curricula and programs, volume of an academic load, duration of the academic periods, types of the academic occupations, volume of a training material.
6.3 The education program establishes requirements to the maintenance of educational programs of specialties and subject matters.
6.4 Planning and the organization of educational activity are carried out on the basis of curricula.
6.5 Studying plans are subdivided into standard (SSP), individual (ISP) and working (WSP).
SSP are developed on concrete specialties of the higher education on the basis of the state obligatory standards of education and approved by authorized body in the field of education.
In SSP labor input of each subject matter of an obligatory component and each type of educational activity (practice, state exams, writing and protection of the thesis) in the credits is defined, and the component for choice on each cycle of subject matters is specified by total of the credits.
6.6 In addition to SSP annually the higher education institution develops the catalog of elective disciplines (CED) which represents the systematized annotated list of all disciplines of a component for choice.
6.7 On the basis of SSP and CED as a student by means of an edvayzer ISP are formed. ISP defines an individual educational trajectory of each student separately.
ISP join disciplines of an obligatory component from SSP and discipline of a component for choice from CED.
For prevention of a chaotic choice students of elective disciplines and realization developed by higher education institution according to item 4.8 of educational programs, students are recommended to present within CED on a choice some educational trajectories – lists of elective disciplines and sequence of their studying, allowing the student “at the exit” within specialty of the higher education to receive in addition certain list of professional skills and the competences focused on a concrete field of activity taking into account requirements of a labor market and employers
6.8 The working training program is developed for academic year on the basis of SSP specialty and ISP of students and approved as the head of the organization of education on the basis of the solution of the Academic council.
The working training program forms a basis for drawing up the schedule of studies and calculation of labor input of study of the teacher.
6.9 The form, structure, order of development and the statement of ISP and the Working training program are defined by a higher educational institution independently.
6.10 The maintenance of all subject matters is defined by training programs. Training programs are subdivided on standard and sillabus.
6.11 Standard training programs are developed on disciplines of an obligatory component and approved by authorized body in the field of education.
6.12 Sillabuses are developed on all disciplines of the curriculum and are approved by a higher educational institution. Thus their development on disciplines of an obligatory component is carried out on the basis of standard study, and on disciplines of a component for choice – higher education institution independently.
6.13 Planning of the content of education, way of the organization and carrying out educational process is carried out by a higher educational institution independently on the basis of credit technology of training.Утвержден Приказом Министра образования и науки Республики Казахстан от « 17 » июня 2011 г. № 261
