According to the press service of the Armenian President, during the  visit, the President toured the center's laboratory complexes,  learned about the applied and scientific research work being carried  out, and learned about the international scientific and educational  programs implemented at CERN.

According to the source, since 1998, CERN has been implementing an  international teacher training program aimed at improving the quality  of teaching physics and related natural sciences. As part of this  initiative, CERN also runs a separate program for Armenian teachers,  who will undergo retraining for the first time in 2024. During the  discussion, teachers from Armenia described their participation in  the program, shared their professional experience, and discussed the  potential for its application in the Armenian education system.  Khachaturyan emphasized the importance of continuing such  initiatives, noting the key role of international cooperation in the  development of education and science.
