MEDAWEL Tempus Project Update

A three hour workshop was held at MUBS main campus in Damour on Friday May 23, 2014 to disseminate and transfer the “Promoting Quality Employment for Students and Graduates” Training developed by the University of Alicante (Spain) which four of MUBS staff attended last month (April 2014) in Egypt within the framework of the MEDAWEL Tempus project activities. The session was attended by fifteen of MUBS staff who work extensively with students as student affairs officers, admissions and marketing officers, career services, registrars and business office. The trainees participated in different activities to set goals, define & prioritize actions, and identify targets related to career services and alumni engagement. The participants then discussed major issues and came up with suggestions that can be implemented at MUBS to improve career services and the employability of MUBS graduates.
