According to the CEO of Jahan Foulad Gharb, the Shokri Industrial Group’s board of directors established the applied science university at the Jahan Foulad complex with three main objectives: training and identifying skilled, specialized, and educated personnel; providing a platform for short-term training courses for the complex’s employees; and creating an appropriate space for transferring the valuable experiences of Jahan Foolad Gharb’s experts and other units of the Shokri Industrial Group to younger personnel.
The director of education at Jahan Foolad Gharb’s applied science center highlighted the various facilities and benefits provided to students, including shuttle services, lunch at the factory’s cafeteria, and the installment payment of tuition fees. Regarding the employment guarantee, he added that since the Shokri Industrial Group aims to recruit skilled and trained local personnel, graduates from this center meeting the necessary criteria can be employed in the required departments of Shokri Industrial Group’s factories.
