University of Jordan
Philadelphia University
And if you’re interested in getting active and doing something different, new, and fun this spring semester, then read on…
Fastlink has a new youth program at the universities mentioned above, which aims at unleashing students’ creativity, providing an outlet for them to employ their ideas and utilize their full potential, and enhancing their professional skills.
A participant enrolls in one of three tracks; Filmmaking (culture), ICT (Information and Communication Technology), and Sports/Environment…
Each university would have a team of ten students in each track
The program cycle is one semester, comprising:
-Introductory training – team building, communication and presentation skills, proposal writing…
-Professional Preparation training; such as CV writing, Job interviews, and work and business ethics.
-Track-specific training from partners who are experts in the field (example; the Royal Film Commission for filmmaking, and Oracle for ICT)
-Each team brainstorming for ideas of a project they want to carry out within their track (i.e. a short film for the filmmaking track, a telecom-related technical project for the ICT, and a project related to outdoor sports and Jordan’s environment for the sports track)
-Submission and Evaluation of proposals
-A period of 9 weeks to carry out the projects.
-Presentation and Evaluation of the projects, where teams from different universities will be competing in each track for Best Project Award.
The cycle closes with a grand final celebration and the distribution of valuable awards to the winning teams.
