The Tamaz Bekaia Educational Foundation, in partnership with the Millennium Foundation and with financial support from the Gudavadze-Patarkatsishvili Foundation, is launching an important new project: “Graduate Research and Engagement Systems in Higher and Vocational Education in Georgia.”

What is the main goal of the project?

To establish sustainable, modern systems for graduate engagement and research at 10 higher and vocational education institutions across Georgia, including regional universities and colleges.

💡 What will this project change?

– Evidence-based education: A unified methodology for graduate research and a data analytics system will be developed.

– Stronger links with the labor market: Educational programs will be better aligned with real-world employment demands.

– Stronger alumni networks: Opportunities for graduate mentorship and professional collaboration will be expanded.

– Monitoring outcomes: Graduate employment, career progression, and satisfaction with their education will be assessed.

As part of the project, training sessions and pilot studies will be conducted. The developed methodology and guidelines will also be made available to other educational institutions operating in Georgia.

🤝 Together, let’s strengthen the connection between education and the economy to create a better future for young people!
