existing cooperation between the University and Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global

including; PhD programs in Business Administration and Education and the
Master's program in Business Administration.

During the meeting, Dr.

pointing out that this tendency stems from the fact that education is a basic
right for everyone, especially for those who are unable to afford travel
expenses. He continued by stressing the need to effectively plan for a better
future for knowledge seekers in all countries worldwide, and most particularly
in the Global South.

Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh further
stated that technological evolution, artificial intelligence (AI) and modern
means of communication effectively contributed to the dissemination of digital
learning that serves individuals and societies by enabling learning
opportunities for all. 

For their part, Drs. Nino and
Al Sayegh expressed their pride in cooperating with TAG-GDU which is known for its
global connections and successes. They also affirmed that such cooperation will
positively contribute to achieving ambitious goals to serve and benefit the
largest segment of students, starting with the opportunities that the
University offers as a result of expanding its educational programs.

During the meeting, the three
parties discussed means of disseminating and introducing new short-term
executive programs specialized in AI and cybersecurity to help students advance
their professional careers.
