About
Georgia's Innovation and Technology Agency (GITA) with support from the World Bank, is implementing the Georgia National Innovation Ecosystem (GENIE) Project, which aims to increase the innovative activities of entities and individuals and their participation in the digital economy of Georgia.
Georgian ICT labor market analysis conducted in 2017-2018 demonstrated that the ICT workforce is not sufficiently qualified to meet national and international market requirements. The GENIE project aims to implement a collaborative skills strategy to improve the digital skills of Georgian professionals in line with the economic and digital strategies of the country.
ICT training program in the scope of the GENIE project has started with pilot phase on November, 2020 aiming to train at least 500 IT specialists and now it is followed by larger scale phase(s) to train at least 2,500 IT specialists. Overall, the whole program aims to train at least 3,000 participants by May of 2023.
To facilitate and deliver online training and international exams in ICT and Non-ICT domains for Georgian citizens, GITA, based on the international selection process, has invited the globally acknowledged IT Training Center – New Horizons, Space Cad and Tbilisi Communication School. With the help of Consultant's experienced team, students will learn the necessary technical and professional skills to succeed in technology positions across industries, while also preparing for specific certifications.
The program is funded by the Georgian Government, which means that if you cover most of the training prerequisites, you can start training and get certified for free.
