studies took place in daily and extramural forms. In the Olsztyn branch, the curriculum implemented compulsory
subjects as well as compulsory classes. The programme of education consisted of compulsory subjects and pedagogical practice, writing diploma theses and submitting diploma exams. Graduates were able to continue their
studies at the third year of higher education. The Teacher Training College in Olsztyn was liquidated in 1969. His
task was taken over by the Higher School of Teachers in Olsztyn.
