Iran to Inaugurate Largest Training Village to Improve Students’ Skills
“The largest village to improve students’ skills in western Iran has been established in Hamedan city and it will be officially inaugurated early fall,” Mohammad Ali Nadi told ANA.
He underlined that in addition to the rapid movement in students’ skill training, Islamic Azad University has started the skill training process in the student sector.
Nadi also said that the model of technology development and entrepreneurship in the university is a triangle composed of education, skill and technology, which includes various fields, including TMC centers, laboratories, workshops and simulated skill environments.
Former Iranian Minister of Science, Research and Technology Mohammad Ali Zolfi Gol had underlined in February cooperation with the Islamic Azad University to attain the goal of knowledge-based development.
“In the 7th Development Plan, special attention has been paid to the development of knowledge,” Zolfi Gol said, addressing the closing ceremony of the National NEXT Technology Award, which was held in Isfahan on February 21.
“The goal of NEXT Award is to raise the flag of technology. Holding this festival is a symbol of new thinking and planning,” he added.
Noting that the birth and growth of knowledge-based companies is highly important, Zolfi Gold said, “The Ministry of Science, the Islamic Azad University, the Vice-Presidency for Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy, and other institutions are members of a team that strive for the same goal.”
“In the ministry of science, we have collected people with (good) ideas and provided them with land and possibilities (for research and production),” he added.
