Education in Russia.

Our educational system is not very complex. It is divided into three stages: preschool education, secondary education and higher education. Each of them has its own peculiarities.

The preschool education is provided by nursery schools and it depends upon the parents to send their children or not. There children learn the fundamentals of reading, writing, counting.

There are different types of secondary schools: general secondary, technical schools, and vocational schools.

Every boy or girl must get secondary education. They go to school at the age of six or seven and must stay there until they are 14-17 years old. At schools pupils study academic subjects, such as Russian, Literature, Mathematics, History, Biology, a foreign language and other.

Higher education in our country is available to those having secondary education who have passed entrance examinations. Most colleges, universities and institutes are state ones, but there are also private colleges. They train specialists in different branches of science and technology.

Most higher schools have their own hostels and living and recreation complexes for students.

Our educational system is in the process of perfection to meet the requirements of our developing economy.

Our enterprises work in close collaboration with foreign enterprises of the same field and carry out the exchange of specialists.

Selling Dreams

Ferrari, Italy’s maker of sports and racing cars is one of the most famous brands in the world. The company got its high reputation among the world’s corporate giants almost without the help of an advertising department. Only in 1993 Ferrari created a marketing department. It just doesn’t need any

extra advertising. Only parking these exciting automobiles is enough to draw a crowd.

Customers are now spending more money on products they desire rather than on products they simply need. All companies must therefore produce goods of very high quality. Like Ferrari, all companies must create and sell “dreams”, which possess certain emotional qualities that match customers’ strongest desires.

Statistics for luxury goods shows some interesting facts. The largest market for the car maker’s products in the world is Switzerland, with 220 Ferraris sold in 1997. The company, on the other hand, sells only 2.7% of its cars to women. Rolex and the highest number of luxury watches are sold in Italy, while Japan continues to be the leading market in the world for leather goods from Gucci and Ferragamo.

China, amazingly, appears to be drinking a lot of Hennessy cognac.
