Rehabilitation of the vocational college is underway in Lagodekhi
The Minister of Education and Science of Georgia continues to visit infrastructure projects. This time, Tamar Sanikidze inspected the rehabilitation process of the educational building of the public college โAisiโ branch in the village of Shroma, Lagodekhi. Along with the educational building, the student dormitory will also be renovated. The project is important in terms of increasing geographical accessibility so that the population living near the border has the opportunity to acquire vocational education.
Starting from the 2016-2017 academic year, Lagodekhi will have one of the strongest vocational educational institutions in the Kakheti region, which will serve up to 300 students and implement the following 12 vocational programs: Farmer, Veterinary Service Specialist, Beekeeper, Forester (Lumberjack, Taxator), Gardener (Ornamental Plants), Nursery Enterprise Specialist, Agricultural Business Producer, Accountant, Stylist, Cultural Heritage Guide of Georgia, Tractor-Driver-Machinist, Computer Networks and Systems Administrator.
Teaching in the aforementioned programs will be of great importance for the integration of the population of Saingilo into the Georgian vocational educational space, which was interrupted due to the absence of a vocational educational institution in the Lagodekhi Municipality. It will also be of great significance to involve the non-Georgian population of Lagodekhi in vocational education, which will contribute to the economic strengthening of Lagodekhi and its surrounding areas.
The promotion and development of vocational education is one of the priorities of the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia. In this direction, the Ministry is implementing important projects, which include both the refinement of educational programs, the introduction of new modules and modern teaching methods, as well as the implementation of large-scale infrastructure projects:
