Топик: The 70-th anniversary

In 1972-1974 with the help of students a new three – storied building was attached to an old one.

Chemical and technological laboratories, students' canteen for 120 places and the pride of the technical school - a gymnasium are placed there.

For great success in communist education of youth, for taking an active part in mass defensive work, for spreading political and scientific knowledge among the population, for physical culture development and sports in our town the Technical School was rewarded with diplomas of the Central Committee of the Leninist Young Communist League of the Soviet Union, Ministry of Education of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR), territorial Party Committee, town Party Committee, territory executive committee, by the board of administration of territorial branch of all-union society "Znanie" etc.

By the order of Ministry of Education of the RSFSR № 145 06.03.1984 "About affirmation of basic special colleges on the territory of Stavropol and Krasnodar regions" Pyatigorsk Technical School of Soviet Trade was confirmed as basic among special educational institutions of Stavropol region.

For training skilled specialists for trade and public catering establishments the Technical School was rewarded according to its deserts with diplomas of managing department of Stavropol territory executive committee, territorial Party Committee and the town Party Committee.

The Technical School has done a lot of good. For making good progress in sports and physical training it was given the name "Youth" by the All – Union Council of Voluntary Sport Societies of Trade Unions in the competition with other educational institutions. During this period we have trained 11 Masters of Sports, 5 Candidates of Sports, 237 sportsmen of the first degree.

The tradition of holding of "The Day of Health" is still taking place at the Technical School as well as basketball, volleyball, table-tennis, mini-soccer, track-and-field athletics competitions , cross-country races.

In 1981 the Technical School celebrated its 50-th anniversary. There had been 73 graduations by this time, 20600 specialists for national economy: experts of food and non-food products, goods managers in public catering establishments had been trained and assigned to work to 340 cities and villages of our country.

From 1977 till 1989 the Technical School cooperated with the College of internal trade in Dresden (GDR), which had many branches in other towns. Every year we exchanged delegations for 20 days. During that time the students studied the forms of trade of our countries. They also had a course of training at the best enterprises of the Caucasian spa region: Pyatigorsk, Kislowodsk, Yessentuki, Mineral Waters and in the towns of GDR: Dresden, Leipzig, Magdeburg and others.

From 1991 – till 1994 our Technical School exchanged delegations with the American Culinary Association. Our teachers and students were a part of the delegation. The Americans were given a certificate after a short course in Russian, national cuisine of Russia and Caucasus.

It's a pleasure to note the fact that nowadays more than 400 former students work successfully in Stavropol region as the leaders of different large enterprises of retail and wholesale trade and in public catering establishments.
