On July 14, 2010, the Taras Shevchenko National University of Ukraine Institute of UDO was established. The educational center of the UDO of Ukraine became the basis for its creation, and the first head of the already independent educational institution was Colonel Leonid Kucheryavy. Now the institution is celebrating its tenth anniversary.
On the occasion of the anniversary, a parade was held near the Institute building, during which Serhiy Rud, the head of the UDO of Ukraine, addressed the audience with a solemn speech. He recalled that the institution was formed on the basis of the training center of the State Security Administration of Ukraine, and its scientific and teaching team has proven itself as a team of dedicated professionals. Serhii Rud also thanked everyone who tirelessly applied their knowledge, strength and skills to the creation and development of such a unique educational space for all these ten years. He wished for the conquest of new peaks, the expansion of international cooperation and scientific achievements for the benefit of the Motherland.
Today, the Institute of the State Security Administration of Ukraine is successfully training military personnel who provide protection for high-ranking officials and state authorities of Ukraine. Here, future security guards, in addition to the familiar law, foreign languages and political science, study many specialized disciplines: counter-sniper training, ensuring the safety of individuals, emergency driving, physical, tactical, fire training, etc. Graduates of the Institute today protect the first persons of the state, build a successful career in the security and defense sector and in the security business.
The Federation of Bodyguards of the Dnipropetrovsk region joins in the congratulations and wishes the scientific and teaching staff, students and graduates of the institution to remain faithful to their cause and overcome obstacles on the way to professional and personal achievements with dignity!
