The Kirov factory has its own Personnel training center which is engaged in training, retraining, training for acquiring 2nd profession, and advanced training for the personnel. Training is given by both the teachers of higher institutions of St. Petersburg and experienced workers of the factory who reveal peculiarities of operating a specific machine to young specialists. The center is opened to everybody who has a strong interest in his/her professional growth. There is a system of tutorship at the factory. Experienced employees having pedagogical skills in the capacity of tutors are attached to every young worker and specialist under 30 years of age. The tasks of the tutor are connected with giving practical support to a young staff member in mastering the profession, dealing with production and household problems, fostering love and respect for his/her profession. The main aim of the tutor is to give assistance to a young employee in becoming a full member of the huge collective of the Kirov factory.

A wide range of meetings with Director General, his deputies, with directors and leading specialists of subsidiary companies is held within its framework.

A salary of a student doing practical work in engineering departments comes up to 50% of specialists’ official emolument and up to 60-70% of the amount of master’s official emolument for students doing practical work in shops. Young specialists have their official emoluments equal to specialists’ official emoluments of the 3rd category and assistants of masters.
