It is worth highlighting that the "Joint Germany-Azerbaijani Program on Professional Development Managers in the Business Community of Azerbaijan" has been implemented in our country since 2009. The program coordinator for Azerbaijan is selected to be KOBİA, while for Germany, it is GIZ. So far, 539 Azerbaijani managers and entrepreneurs have become beneficiaries of the program. They have actively contributed to the work process by applying what they have learned during the professional development course and best practices in their businesses and the companies they work for. At the moment, a group of Azerbaijani entrepreneurs and managers is taking a professional development course in Hamburg, Germany as part of the program.
