•The Civil Service Bureau is actively working on the elaboration of training modules on a range of different topics for civil servants.

•A recent Amendment of the ‘Law on Civil Service of Georgia’ establishes the right of civil servants to develop their professional skills and improve their qualifications.

•The CSB assesses and analyses existing needs and collaborates with international partners on this issue.

One of the main priorities of the Civil Service Bureau is to introduce job descriptions for civil servants.

• Job descriptions are widely accepted in international practice and Georgia has received a number of recommendations on this issue.

• It allows managers to clearly identify the rights and responsibilities of the employees and define goals .

To ensure successful implementation of the law, the CSB works to provide:
