KUWAIT
– The Ministry of Education in Kuwait has officially decided to accredit the
Talal Abu-Ghazaleh International Diploma in IT Skills (TAG- DIT) certificate in
the country. 

The
decision No. 20/2022, made by Dr. Ali Al-Mudhaf, Minister of Education, Higher
Education and Scientific Research, stipulates the accreditation of the Talal
Abu-Ghazaleh International Diploma in IT Skills – provided by Talal
Abu-Ghazaleh Global (TAG.Global) - as an alternative to the Cambridge
certificate; the International Computer Driving License (ICDL).

Accordingly,
the decision adopts all the controls and standards of ICDL certification;
contained in the Ministerial Decision No. 359/2002, to similarly deal with the
TAG-DIT certificate.

Since
2004, the Kuwaiti Ministry has been accrediting the Cambridge ICT certificate;
offered by TAG.Global as a certificate similar to the ICDL.

It
should be noted that the Talal Abu-Ghazaleh International Diploma in IT Skills
(TAG-DIT) program was previously offered in cooperation with the Cambridge
International Examinations (CIE) - University of Cambridge, and has recently become the
property of TAG.Global. This decision came after 16 years of considerable
experience in developing and managing the TAG-DIT certificate as well as
training and awarding certificates for more than a quarter of a million Arab
citizens in many Arab countries.

Executive
Director of TAG.Global Office in Kuwait, Mr. Hazem Abu-Ghazaleh, stated that
TAG.Global; through Talal Abu-Ghazaleh E-Training Center, has successfully
managed to develop the Diploma certificate out of its keenness and
responsibility to build knowledge-based societies and to create digital citizens.
He went on to refer to the forward-looking vision of HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh,
founder and chairman of TAG.Global, which asserts that the future of countries
and communities depends on boosting knowledge, innovation and information
technology.

The
Talal Abu-Ghazaleh E-Training Center was established in 2001 with the aim of
providing high-quality IT training courses in the Arab region through
partnerships with leading institutions. The Center seeks to expand its outreach
in the region, and provide information technology evaluation services using
specific software applications.
