The National Assessment and Examinations Center (NAEC) is actively preparing to ensure that the examination process runs smoothly. Preparatory steps already completed include trial testing of exam materials, along with training and assessments for all individuals involved in the examination process.

Currently, the NAEC is in the process of printing and sorting answer sheets, draft papers, and support materials such as maps and periodic tables of chemical elements. Final preparations are also underway to equip the examination laptops with the necessary software. Additionally, an independent team of experts is finalizing the identification and analysis of special requirements for candidates who need accommodations, based on their applications and submitted Form N100.

As in previous years, exam centers for 2025 will operate in multiple locations across the country, including Tbilisi, Batumi, Zugdidi, Kutaisi, Poti, Akhaltsikhe, Gori, Ozurgeti, Rustavi, Telavi, Khulo, and Ambrolauri. Soon, the NAEC will begin equipping these centers with all necessary supplies.

To help applicants better prepare, the NAEC has already hosted several Open Days throughout Georgia, both in-person and online. Another informational session is planned in the near future to provide comprehensive guidance on the exam process and regulations. The exact date of this meeting will be announced soon on the NAEC’s official website and Facebook page.

Additionally, an organizational meeting has already been held to coordinate preparations for the exams. Participants discussed detailed action plans and outlined key steps leading up to the exams.

This year, approximately 80,000 applicants have registered to take part in the Unified National Exams, the Common Master’s Exam, Teacher Certification Exams, and the Student Grant Competition.
