Hisham Hijjawi’s membership in the EfVET Forum follows the participation of its Head of Projects and Studies Unit, Mr. Ala Darwish, in the AI in Education Conference held in Brussels. During the event, Mr. Darwish met forum representatives to explore collaboration, leading to the college's proposed membership to expand partnerships and benefit from training and development opportunities.

In recognition of Hisham Hijjawi’s leadership in vocational education, the EfVET Forum has waived its membership fees. This decision allows the College to fully benefit from the forum’s services and opportunities without financial constraints.

Dr. Amer Massad, Dean of Hisham Hijjawi, hailed the College’s membership in the EfVET Forum as a milestone in expanding its global presence and fostering collaboration with Europe’s top vocational institutions. He credited the College’s board for its continuous support in strengthening international partnerships and reaffirmed the commitment to providing high-quality education aligned with global best practices, ensuring better opportunities for students and graduates.

It is worth noting that Hisham Hijjawi's membership in the EfVET Forum will open significant opportunities for participation in European projects, knowledge exchange with vocational education institutions across Europe, and advanced training opportunities for both students and faculty.
