The flagship project of the Foundation is International Engineering CASE-IN Championship, which is supported by the presidential platform "Russia is a land of Opportunity". 12,754 schoolchildren, students and young specialists took part in the XII season of the championship, which was held under the banner of lean manufacturing.

The CASE-IN line This year it expanded, providing great opportunities for the comprehensive development of young people: in the main season, participants solved cases related to architecture, design, construction and housing and communal services, and the Autumn Cup was marked by the opening of the Space Technologies direction.

The strongest participants continue to develop and demonstrate their skills within the framework of The CASE-IN Winners' Club. The winners and prize-winners of the championship share their accumulated experience with the participants of the Foundation's projects, spread effective engineering practices, and also contribute to the popularization of the championship and engineering education.

Among other things, the Club's ambassadors conduct classes in CASE-IN educational circles, which opened in 2024 in five schools in Moscow, Nizhnevartovsk, St. Petersburg and Ya.Roslavl, as well as on the basis of the National Research University "MEI" and the Center for the Development of Modern Competencies "N.N.Semenov House of Scientific Collaboration" of Samara State Technical University.

Classes in the circles develop the engineering and general scientific skills of students in grades 5-11, the industrial thinking of the children, as well as involve them in scientific and technical creativity and solving real production problems. The knowledge gained will help students successfully participate in federal educational projects, including the CASE-IN championship, as well as determine their future profession.

The year 2024 was marked by the launch of the "Course for the Case" website, where participants of the CASE-IN championship and everyone can take a variety of master classes. The presented materials were developed by current managers, employees of companies and teachers of higher educational institutions.

The organizing committee of the championship continues to develop for companies and universities CASE-IN Simulator - an educational platform that helps integrate the case method into educational and work processes, assess the skills of students and staff, and act as an effective tool for conducting case studies and other competitive events.

60 teams of students from leading specialized universities from 23 cities of Russia and Belarus and young specialists from 15 industry companies took part in Youth Global forecast of energy development and we have developed strategies for the development of the industry until 2035. The winners and prize-winners of the project presented a consolidated forecast at the Youth Day of the International Forum "Russian Energy Week" and were able to make themselves known to the industry community.

The Foundation's projects have been open to schoolchildren since the third grade. Despite their young age, the guys are very curious and show bold ideas.

It turned out to be a busy and interesting year for students in grades 10-11. energy groups "Reliablethe shift". The contestants got acquainted with the leading professions in the energy industry and were able to prepare for the successful passing of the Unified State Exam. The high school students took courses in physics, mathematics and computer science, as well as a special course "Introduction to Energy", met with industry workers and joined the CASE-IN championship.

Students of grades 8-10 on The School League of the International Construction Championship We solved cases and carried out projects in the field of construction: we designed the cities of the future of Russia and created comfortable living conditions for people. The high school students demonstrated critical thinking, knowledge of construction technologies, the ability to organize construction production and learn in the process.

On branch shift at the All-Russian Children's Center "Eaglet" The students got acquainted with energy, ecology and energy efficiency, learned how to take care of the environment and natural resources. 

School of the Young Power engineer At the All-Russian Smena Children's Center, she taught how to work in a team and analyze large amounts of data, introduced leading industry representatives, and allowed her to take the first informed steps in choosing a future profession.

The Foundation also once again conducted an application campaign for a free online educational program. EVRAZ Career Academy, which It operates within the framework of the Academy of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN". As part of the academy, students in grades 10-11 who are interested in studying engineering at a university and see themselves as engineers at one of the largest metallurgical and mining companies take preparation courses for the Unified State Exam in physics and mathematics, career guidance seminars and trials, field trips to production and case-solving competitions.

The Foundation has launched a new direction for schoolchildren – development of designers of electric power systems. When assembling construction kits, children will be able to master important qualities for further personal development and decide on their future profession. Working on a construction kit develops collective creativity, spatial thinking, fine motor skills, concentration, and teaches you how to work with drawings, terms, and definitions. By launching this work, the Foundation aims to teach children to think not only with their heads, but also with their hands, so that they can bring their technical thought and idea to the creation of the final functioning installation.

The ambassadors, members of the CASE-IN winners Club, participated in The Forum "Teachers of Russia - Innovations in education" In 8 regions, they talked about the projects of the Reliable Shift Foundation aimed at career guidance for schoolchildren and popularization of engineering and technical education. School leaders and teachers learned about the important role of the Foundation's projects in training the next generation of specialists for companies in the fuel and energy complex, the Moscow Energy Complex, the nuclear industry and related industries.
