A Leap towards Quality Education Through Collaborative Partnerships

The University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa has embarked on a transformative journey to enhance the quality of education through the establishment of the Quality Assessment Center. This initiative, in harmony with Sustainable Development Goal 4 - Quality Education, underscores our unwavering commitment to evaluate, enhance, and refine skill sets while improving measurement and evaluation methodologies.

In pursuit of this educational excellence, key stakeholders including Dr. Nawfal Al-Araji, Chairman of the Foundation Board, and Dr. Sabeeh Al-Mashhadani, responsible for measurement and evaluation, convened with academic leaders.

During this collaborative discussion, we delved into defining the essential skillsets within the medical departments and specifying the tools required for skill development and assessment. It was collectively decided to extend the benefits of this initiative beyond our university.

In a remarkable partnership, Alsibtain Academy has also been included in this endeavor. Plans were made to conduct workshops encompassing all medical specializations within the University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa, AlZahraa University for Women, and Alsibtain Academy.

This collaborative effort signifies our dedication to Sustainable Development Goal 17 - Partnerships for the Goals. Together, through this strong partnership with Alsibtain Academy and other stakeholders, we are creating a robust quality assurance framework. This fosters a culture of continuous improvement in education and ensures that knowledge and expertise are shared for the benefit of all institutions involved.

By coming together, leveraging collective wisdom, and reinforcing collaboration, we are making strides to ensure that education remains a powerful catalyst for personal and societal development. This partnership exemplifies the spirit of SDG 17, showcasing the immense potential for positive change when organizations work in unison towards a common goal.
