The State Employment Promotion Agency is now accepting applications for funding of short-term vocational training and retraining courses. Both public and private educational institutions may submit the required documentation between August 11 and 22.
Deputy Health Minister Gia Tsagareishvili emphasised that such training enhances skills and boosts employment opportunities. He encouraged regional centres to participate in the programme.
The Employment Promotion Agency currently collaborates with approximately 30 public and private colleges. Short-term vocational training programmes range from one to three months and cover areas such as computer programming, aesthetics, beauty therapy, accounting, hospitality, catering, engineering, home care, working with children with special needs, and educational leadership.
In 2025, the agency financed over 80 courses for 2,000 citizens nationwide, with most securing employment thereafter. In 2024, up to 3,700 job seekers benefited from the programme, gaining valuable new skills.
Applicants are advised to visit the State Employment Promotion Agency’s service centres to register.
