INTRODUCTION.
During the period of Soviet colonialism in Uzbekistan,
the need for quality personnel in the economic and social spheres was not
studied scientifically. As a result, serious mistakes were made in the planning of
personnel training in the republic, more personnel were trained in some areas
than necessary, and in some areas, especially in the sectors dealing with
technical development, there was a shortage of workers from representatives of
the local nationality. In the years after the Second World War, the laws and
decisions regarding the education system were considered to be the main issue
of training young people for the profession, preparing them as specialists
needed for the national economy and other fields.
ANALYSIS OF LITERATURE ON THE SUBJECT.
Many monographs,
brochures, articles, collections of documents and memorial books have been
published on the education system in Uzbekistan and its condition from the
years after the Second World War to the 1980s. Scientific researches on the topic
created during the Soviet period were created more in accordance with the
communist ideology, in which the advantages of the Soviet-era education
system, the reforms implemented by the communist party in the field of
education, their results, positive evaluation of the changes in the field of training
of pedagogues, together with the vocational training of local youth moved to
problems .

Discussion.
On December 24, 1958, the Law "On Strengthening the
Connection of School with Life and Further Development of the Public Education
System" was adopted. In accordance with the law, secondary general education
schools were transformed into 11-year secondary general education schools in
the direction of production. The goal was that within three years, high school
students should acquire a profession, get a secondary-special education and
serve as laborers in various fields of the national economy. Some results have
been achieved regarding the implementation of this law. During 1958-1961,
there were 991 schools in the republic where industrial education was
introduced under industrial enterprises, collective farms and other
organizations [1.27].
After the Second World War, a number of reforms were implemented in
the system of secondary special and higher education in the preparation of
specialist personnel for various sectors of the national economy. However, the
difficult economic situation at that time did not allow young people of the local
population to study in educational institutions, and prevented them from
training highly qualified specialists. In particular, in 1950-1953, Uzbeks made up
30 percent of the students who graduated from higher educational institutions,
and 33 percent of those who graduated from secondary specialized educational
institutions [2.89].
Due to the unjustified involvement of Uzbek youth in public and political
activities and agricultural work in high schools, they would not have the
opportunity to obtain the knowledge required to enter higher education
institutions. Also, one of the main reasons was the introduction of a foreign
language in the exam for admission to higher educational institutions and
Russian language classes for young students. As a result, the decrease in the
number of young people of local nationality in higher education institutions of
the republic affected the decrease in the weight of national personnel. Especially
in rural areas, this led to a lack of specialist personnel.
In connection with the establishment of a full secondary education system
in the Uzbek SSR in the 50s and 60s, in which education was linked to
production, the Ministry of Education of the Republic, the heads of public
economic councils of Gosplan, enterprises, construction, state farms and
kolkhozes are responsible for the planned and organized employment of young
people who have completed school. great responsibility was given. During the
years 1959-1965, a special technical educational institution for training highly
qualified workers with secondary education was built and put into operation in

25 places of the Department of Labor Reserves. 32,000 students who graduated
from the eight-year school are admitted to technical schools[3.101].
In 1946-1958, qualified personnel for Uzbekistan's industry were trained
through vocational and technical education networks and directly in production
itself as a brigade and by individual training. Vocational and technical schools
and educational institutions were rebuilt from 1954 and began to train qualified
personnel for all sectors of the national economy in a centralized manner.
Significant changes were made in the employment distribution of graduates and
the use of their labor. A large number of students of state labor reserves, 16
thousand people were sent to work in agriculture, 11.6 thousand people in
industry, 4.6 thousand people in construction, and 2.8 thousand people in
transport and communication enterprises [4.227].
In the years after the war, the emergence of new sectors in the national
economy of Uzbekistan required the formation of qualified personnel, while the
introduction of new equipment and machine tools in industry, transport,
construction, and agriculture put the task of training and retraining of
engineering and technical personnel on the agenda. As a result, new forms of
raising the scientific and technical level of personnel - advanced technical
universities, experimental institutes, technical faculties of cultural universities
began to appear [5.17]. However, many reasons such as the short period of
study, the limitations of the programs, and their incompatibility with new
technical means have led to unsatisfactory rates and scope of training.
Taking into account the need for technical knowledge in the field of
production, training of workers and engineering-technical staff in production
techniques was started in all large enterprises, and promotion of technical
knowledge was intensified. Most of the heads of workshops, technicians,
foremen and many advanced workers without special specializations enrolled in
part-time and evening higher education institutions and technical schools.
Young workers were attracted to the school of factory advanced production.
In the period under review, there was a problem of training qualified
workers and engineering-technical staff from among the local population in this
system. At the II meeting of the Central Committee of the KP (b) of Uzbekistan,
this issue was considered as a task considered to be of primary importance in
the republic [6.402]. As a result, by 1951-1955, the number of local engineers
and technicians in production increased somewhat. During these years, 6,031
engineers graduated from Uzbekistan's technical universities, of which 1,162
were Uzbeks. Out of 10,227 graduates of industrial technical schools, 3,694 were

Uzbeks. In 1955, the total number of engineers in Uzbekistan was 10,190, while
the number of technicians reached 14,240.[7,108] Also, several employees from
Uzbekistan were sent to major enterprises in the center for training. For
example, in 1950, Uzbek workers were sent to several enterprises on the banks
of the Urals and the Volga [7.108].
During the Soviet Union, the issue of personnel training was considered a
major economic and social problem due to the surplus of labor resources in
Uzbekistan compared to other countries in Central Asia. Therefore, the number
of workers and servants in the republic increased year by year. In 1958, their
number increased by 500 thousand compared to 1940. By 1965, it increased to
400,000. It was 1 million 600 people [3.108].
Despite the considerable increase in the number of workers in the
population, our republic was in 13th place among the Soviet republics according
to this indicator, according to the data of 1979. It should also be recognized that
Uzbekistan was lagging behind in terms of the weight of the national cadres of
the workers. In the following years, a number of serious measures were taken
and appropriate decisions were taken on ways to rationally solve this problem .
Despite the positive changes achieved at the moment, the distribution of
national personnel in some sectors was extremely uneven, and this situation
could not be considered satisfactory.
RESULTS.
There were many shortcomings in the number and quality of
personnel in Uzbekistan. Despite the lack of labor resources, qualified personnel.
in the republic, especially in the newly assimilated regions, it was clearly not
enough. For example, in the Agriculture sector alone, there was a significant
disparity between the number of employees capable of equipping farms with
machinery and managing it. In particular, by the beginning of 1971, there was a
shortage of more than 40,000 tractor drivers and many other mechanics in the
republic, due to the low ratio of shifts and insufficient use of equipment. The
available personnel is unevenly distributed among the regions and districts of
the Uzbek SSR. The scale and profile of new personnel training in vocational
schools, higher and secondary special educational institutions did not
correspond to the real needs of cotton farming, cattle breeding and other
branches of agriculture. The share of female mechanics was low.
In order to eliminate these shortcomings, great work was done on the
implementation of the personnel policy in the republic based on the decisions of
the government. That is, first of all, a unique system was created for the training

of managers, as well as specialists, public workers, and modern professionals.
However, in ensuring the precise coordination of the developed plans for the
training of specialist personnel and improving their qualifications with the plans
for the production of new equipment and its supply to the republic's farms, it is
necessary to combine vocational guidance in general education schools, taking
into account the zonal characteristics of the composition of agricultural
production and its specialization. and in the development of scientific-
methodological developments in order to increase their efficiency, there were
enough shortcomings in the issue of expanding the training of pedagogues for
the purposes of production pedagogy faculties under republican pedagogical
higher educational institutions for rural vocational schools.
CONCLUSION.
During the studied period, as a result of the reforms implemented
in the system of training qualified specialists in the Uzbek SSR, a large number of
workers were trained in various educational institutions and worked in various
sectors of the economy in the republic. Although a number of positive changes
have been achieved in this area , due to difficulties in the socio-economic sphere
of this period, in the issue of national personnel training, it was not possible to
study the representatives of the local nationality in educational institutions, and
it prevented the work of training highly qualified specialists from them. Uzbeks
made up a small number of graduates of higher educational institutions and
secondary specialized educational institutions. At the same time, personnel
trained in educational institutions were trained on the basis of communist
ideology. However, many workers in various fields who are devoted to their
profession have always contributed to the reconstruction and development of
the national economy of the republic through their work.
