Context

Uzbekistan lacked a large-scale, telecom-backed programme training in-service teachers to use AI tools in the classroom until Beeline Uzbekistan (VEON) opened Beeline Academy at the Tashkent International University of Education (TIUE) in October 2023.

Objectives

The academy set out to teach computer-science, mathematics and physics teachers to prepare lessons and assessments with AI, explain material using digital tools, analyse student errors and apply cybersecurity fundamentals.

Activities

Beeline invested $150,000 in IT-education capacity under its 'AI1440' strategy and ran a four-week, remote, interactive course delivered in Uzbek and Russian to teachers from every region of Uzbekistan.

Results

More than 1,000 teachers applied and more than 750 completed the course and received professional-development certificates; TIUE reports close to 1,000 cumulative completions across multiple further cohorts by September 2025.

Conclusions

No independent measurement of classroom impact has been published, so the evidence to date covers reach and completion rather than teaching-practice or student outcomes.
