and collaborate with us,”

The purpose of establishing the Board of Academia, private sector, and industry is to create
collaboration between universities and educational institutions with the
private and industrial sectors of Kurdistan, in which polytechnic universities
will play an important role as these universities are currently responsive to
the labor market.

The board’s mission is to constantly survey the needs of the labor market, change the content
of the curriculum and open new departments and programs related to the labor market,
as well as reviewing the departments that are no longer in demand.

Another objective of the project is to receive the views of the private sector and industry on
further collaboration to prepare the Kurdistan Workforce in light of the
labor market’s needs and the economic development directors in the Kurdistan
Region for university education to reflect the needs of the labor market and
the direction of economic growth and prepare the youth of our country for the
skills needed for the labor market.
