CARANA Awarded Economics and Business Education Project in Central Asia (EdNet) Phase II Contract

Arlington, VA—CARANA has been awarded the follow-on contract for the Economics and Business Education Project in Central Asia known as EdNet. The focus of Phase II is to enhance the ability and flexibility of business and economics education to respond to the evolving needs of business and a competitive labor market. The project will have three major components: continued professional development of faculty of business and economics; competitive grants and pilot projects that close the gap between academia and business; and continued support for policy reforms that allow for greater flexibility, quality and harmonization of standards in higher education. Most of the work will be channeled through indigenous EdNet Academies and the EdNet Association, as well as other local and regional counterparts. There is a significant GDA component in collaboration with businesses and foundations. The contract has a 20 month base period with a 12 month option.
