These include administrative personnel, student support staff, quality assurance officers, international relations staff and library personnel.

The responsibilities, qualification requirements and working conditions of non-academic staff are defined by institutional regulations in accordance with the Law of Georgia on Higher Education and the Labour Code of Georgia.

Higher education institutions may provide professional development opportunities for non-academic staff, particularly in areas such as student services, digital administration and quality assurance.
