In the greeting to the participants of the session, the Chairman of the Russian Historical Society Sergey Naryshkin emphasized: "The introduction of this document marks a new stage in the development of domestic higher education. Never before has the history of Russia in non-core areas of training been taught to such an extent and with such scrupulous attention to the content aspects of the course."

In accordance with the program principles of the Concept, the Ivanovo Polytechnic University has already prepared a working program of the discipline for the new academic year that meets the requirements and content fixed there. The first year of students will study the history of Russia according to it, and a better understanding of this issue will be the result of the participation of teachers of our university in the lecture session and will serve as educational practice.
