POLICY AND MANAGEMENT CONSULTING GROUP – PMCG

PMCG started funding Master's students in 2015. The decision was based on the fact that there is a lack of professionals in the field in which the company is operating. In addition, PMCG believes that the fast and effective development of the country requires the active involvement of educated and motivated young people and raising their levels of education. In order to implement the initiative, the company launched a partnership of cooperation with one of the leading universities in the field of economics - International School of Economics at TSU.

From 2015, the competition has been announced annually. Students are selected according to criteria such as academic performance, motivation, financial conditions of their family, etc. The final decision is made by the company's board members. Within the framework of the program, the company has awarded scholarships to nine students at the Master's level. It should be noted that half of the program's participants have undergone summer internships at the company. This year, PMCG has increased the number of students to be financed from two to three. PMCG has spent about GEL20,000 on the Master's Students Scholarship Program to date. In the future, the company plans to add other areas to the financing scheme from fields which also suffer from the lack of highly qualified staff on the local market
