ASSESSMENT OF THE COMPETITIVENESS OF MODERN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS BASED ON RESOURCE POTENTIAL

Abstract

The modern economic environment has undergone significant changes, as a result of which classical approaches to ensuring the competitiveness of enterprises in the real and public sectors of the economy have proved unjustified. The changes in Georgia have increased the need for innovative development of all industries and economic activities, as innovation has become a key factor in competitiveness in the global market. In addition, the high competitiveness of the education system is becoming one of the factors of economic security of the state in the XXI century. The implementation of state policy in the social sphere is impossible without solving the problems of matching the interests of the society, the state, and the public sector, as well as setting the right priorities. All these problems can be solved by giving more freedom to these public sector institutions, creating an effective competitive environment, and developing mechanisms to assess their competitiveness. Monitoring the quality of their work facilitates the introduction of promising mechanisms to ensure competitiveness. When the public sector of the economy moves to a new format, these mechanisms ultimately act as a lever, determining the market opportunities of Georgian public sector organizations in the global economy and contributing to the growth of Georgia's innovative potential. Key words: State policy, education, innovations.
