Navigating Georgia's dynamic education sector requires a profound understanding of its intricate and evolving legal framework. The laws governing general, vocational, and higher education are multifaceted, establishing strict requirements for licensing, quality assurance, and operational conduct. For any educational institution, from a private school in Tbilisi to a major university, strict adherence to these regulations is not just a matter of compliance but a cornerstone of its reputation, viability, and success. Misinterpreting these legal mandates, such as those within the Law on General Education or the Law on Higher Education, can lead to significant operational disruptions, severe financial penalties, and critical challenges with the authorization and accreditation bodies.
