The renewed partnership agreement
was signed during a visit to Irbid Governorate by the CEO of
Orange Jordan,
Thierry Marigny, accompanied by several executive directors to meet the president
of Yarmouk University, Islam Massad, who talked about the cooperation that
brings together the two parties to develop the educational process, enrich the
experience of university students, and prepare them for the labor market.
Orange Jordan affirmed the
importance of its strategic partnerships with the educational institutions and
the extended partnership with Yarmouk University, adding that higher education
is a major focus in the company’s CSR strategy, initiatives, and programs emerging
from it that seek to qualify graduates and students to enter the labor market
efficiently and start their projects.
During the visit, Marigny was
briefed about the OYIL offerings to the students. He and Massad also presented
certificates to the students of the second cohort of the current academic year,
who implemented their graduation projects in the lab, as well as honoring the
two projects with the highest rating.
The OYIL welcomes students in
their last academic year to help them complete their practical training for six
months, which is a university requirement for graduation. The number of
beneficiaries of the lab has so far reached 145 graduates. The lab provides
integrated training on the required professional skills and technical training
that focuses on the skills of developing mobile applications across platforms
and designing and developing websites.
