Dear Marijan,

Please be informed that the focal point for the QMS training will be Tea Jikia, you can contact her for all related questions. She will provide the list of participants and etc.

As for our meeting I will be available from 12^th of July.

Dear Sopo,

This is just a short information that we are continuing with the preparations for the QMS training as indicated below. We assume that the dates are acceptable for the ministry. Please, confirm.

It would be also great if you could nominate a focal point with whom we can jointly work on operational details.

Let me also use this opportunity and kindly ask for a meeting. I am absent next week (last week in June), so preferably I would like to meet with you on 3^rd, 5^th, 6^th of July. We could shortly touch the implementation of the current BCA and discuss priorities of the BCA 2020-2021.

Please, let me know your availability for the meeting.

Thank you and best regards,

Dear Sopo,

I cordially hope that current political changes in Georgia will not substantially delay our excellent technical collaboration.

Below is the information about the QMS training:

-          proposed dates for the QMS training 17-19 July 2018,

-          maximum number of participants: 25

-          provisional programe – at glance:

-          Day 1: general description of NRA’s QMS, importance, structure and ways to build it;

participants – attendance of staff of the Ministry, including decision-makers (i.e. Ms Maia Lagvilava, deputy minister) would be relevant.

-          Day 2: development of the core draft QMS documents by groups of NRA experts; QMS is everybody’s business in the NRA, consequently proper selection/allocation of staff is needed.

-          Day 3: continuation/finalization of work initiated on day 2; presentation of results and debriefing.

We kindly ask you to confirm the dates for the workshop, so we can continue with the preparations.

I also copy Ms Jikia, who may be able to provide further details.

Best regards,
