AI Platform to Help Russian Schools Recruit Teachers
The system centralizes the search for teachers and helps manage staffing across hundreds of schools.
The Korporativny universitet razvitiya obrazovaniya Moskovskoy oblasti (Moscow Region Corporate University for Education Development; KURO) has introduced a recruitment system called Union. The platform centralizes the search for teachers for schools in the Moscow region and allows education authorities to manage staffing from a single hub.
Work on the project began in 2023. As a result, the region now has a unified digital infrastructure for working with potential teachers. Today the system covers about 900 schools across the Moscow region.
Candidates in One Database
After the platform was launched, the university’s recruitment team began working with a large database of applicants. Just ten specialists manage a database containing information on more than 30,000 candidates.
More than 3,000 teaching vacancies are filled each year using the system.
Recruitment Analytics
The platform not only searches for teachers but also helps analyze the effectiveness of recruitment.
As part of the project, developers also created a digital reporting system using heat maps. The maps show the staffing level of schools with teachers and update in real time.
The map helps officials quickly identify where teacher shortages emerge and send candidates there faster.
