ArmInfo. Smbat Gogyan submitted his resignation as chairman of the Higher Attestation Committee of the RA Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports. On his Facebook page, Gogyan in particular noted that his ideas about reforming the sector of education and science did not coincide with the strategy of the ministry, and over time these contradictions deepened.
<For the reform of the system, norms established by law were necessary, which I could not get. And after the minister's statement from the NA rostrum to close the Higher Attestation Commission based on the new law, my work became meaningless. I can no longer put my ideas into practice. Plagiarists are waiting for the closure of this structure>, he said, adding that working in this position has ceased to give him pleasure because he is clearly aware of the decrease in its effectiveness.
To note, Smbat Gogyan was appointed to the post of Chairman of the Higher Attestation Commission in July 2018.
