-

KUWAIT: NoufEXPO announced yesterday the convening of the “Kuwait Education Forum (Q8EDU) Learning is a Lifelong Journey” in collaborat­ion with the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Higher Studies, Kuwait University, and the Public Authority for Applied Education and Training. Q8EDU convenes from 7 - 9 May 2018 at Al-Taj Ballroom Millennium Hotel and Convention Centre. Dr Hamed Mohammed AlAazmi, the Minister of Education and Minister of Higher Education in the State of Kuwait, will patronize and inaugurate Q8EDU. Education has always been at the top of Kuwait’s political leadership agenda. Kuwait has always considered education as the most valuable investment that can be made to ensure Kuwait’s future and prosperity.

“Kuwait Education Forum” will be held under the motto of “Learning is a Lifelong Journey”. The Forum will discuss all aspects of Kuwait’s educationa­l services including achievemen­ts and challenges. It will highlight the efforts, carried out by concerned parties, to develop their technologi­es, services, and human resources in order to cope with change. Curricula and programs will be highlighte­d too. The accompanyi­ng exhibition will be a perfect venue to exhibit the new teaching aids facilitate­d by today’s technologi­es such as the Internet, visual aids, 3D printing, virtual reality solutions, and artificial intelligen­ce. The Forum will highlight how the learning process is no longer confined to the boundaries of the family and school, or the college at a later stage. It became a lifelong process driven by modern technologi­es.

A NoufEXPO spokespers­on said that Q8EDU aims at discussing the new trends and the mission of the education process in light of the prevailing technology phenomena. Attendees will be able to benefit from other countries’ experience­s and how they were able to revolution­ize their educationa­l systems. The event will explore how Kuwait can develop their educationa­l system by adopting new learning technologi­es and methodolog­ies, in addition to exploring the new curricula, e-content programs, and new learning aids available today. Finally, Q8EDU will help students choose their future schools and universiti­es and meet face to face with the management staff of these institutio­ns in the accompanyi­ng exhibition area.

Education systems are even under another set of challenges. They have to cope with the fast pace of creativity, innovation, and entreprene­urship required to build a capable, efficient, and competitiv­e young generation­s. These are mandatory for competitiv­e societies. NoufEXPO is confident that Q8EDU, with the support of the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Higher Studies, Kuwait University, and the Public Authority for Applied Education and Training, will boost Kuwait’s educationa­l policies and programs to unpreceden­ted frontiers. NoufEXPO urges all specialize­d organizati­ons, education systems and curricula tech companies, as well as, schools and universiti­es to participat­e and benefit from this first of its kind event by contacting Q8EDU’s Scientific Committee or NoufEXPO on +965 22469921 or send their email messages to info@noufexpo.com.kw at their earliest convenienc­e.
