Based on Resolution No. 688 of the Council of Ministers of the Kazakh SSR dated October 22, 1965, “On measures related to the implementation of the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Kazakh SSR” on the abolition of the Tselinny Krai of the Kazakh SSR, the Tselinny Regional Institute for Teacher Advancement was reorganized into the Central Institute for Teacher Advancement of the Ministry of Education of the Kazakh SSR, located in Tselinograd. One of its main areas of activity was the professional development of senior educational management personnel of the Republic.

About 200 participants were awarded VDNKh USSR medals, and monetary awards totaling over 10,000 rubles were granted. The Institute also held exhibitions in Japan, Egypt, Estonia, and Armenia, as well as organized Kazakhstan Week in Hungary. Within its permanent exhibition, materials were collected for demonstration and use in professional development courses, including 44 albums, 255 methodological developments, recordings of lectures by prominent scholars, and educational filmstrips produced by Institute staff on the IV Congress of Teachers of the Kazakh SSR and the II All-Union Congress of Teachers.
