In 2008, over 15 sectors, 28 firms representing more than 25 professions, in addition to 250 participants participated in the forum. They all extended their appreciation to the institute”s initiative.
The event produced over 40 training and working opportunities to participants. The forum followed up with students and firms throughout the year to provide registered participants with potential offers.
