A memorandum of cooperation and mutual understanding was signed, fostering a collaborative environment between the International Center of Education and the Permanent Conference of Regional Universities.Â
According to the memorandum, the parties should promote the integration of the Center’s graduates in different forms in Georgian higher schools so that they can share their knowledge and innovative approaches with students of regional universities.
Within the framework of the event, the interstate educational programs of the International Center of Education were also discussed, according to which the Center administers competitions for foreign citizens who make academic and research visits to various Georgian universities.
