In support of student empowerment, the event also announced an opportunity for College of Business students to earn an Odoo International Diploma free of charge upon completing the training program and passing required exams. This initiative opens doors for students to join Odoo's partner network locally and regionally, enhancing their career prospects.
At the conclusion of the program, Dr. Al-Khasawneh presented a commemorative shield to Mr. Kevin Farah, Education Director at Odoo, in recognition of the company's outstanding efforts in supporting digital transformation in higher education and its role in advancing e-learning environments and modernizing academic curricula to align with digital-age demands.
