Mamuka Bakhtadze: All diplomas issued in our universities will be recognized and valid in the EU

By joining the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education, we have made a very important step for introducing highest standard of education in Georgia, - Prime Minister Mamuka Bakhtadze said at the event dedicated to the accession of National Center for Educational Quality Enhancement to the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education.

According to Bakhtadze, the above fact is another successful and important step towards the country's Euro-Atlantic integration.

"We are moving closer to our European family in the most important direction and this is education. Several days ago, the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education made a decision on Georgia’s accession to the organization. This is a great success and a historical phenomenon for us, for our education system, especially on the background of our new national idea that education will be the main driving force of our country. What does this mean? This means that we all have practical mechanisms to ensure that higher education institutions meet all criteria in Georgia, which means that all diplomas issued in our universities will be recognized and valid in the EU. This is a very big step forward," Mamuka Bakhtadze said.
