The head of the Faculty of Textile Engineering at Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic), stated that the university's share in offering short-term courses is at most 20%. He emphasized the need to launch programs for revisiting and re-creating what has been learned, adding that documentation of knowledge should also be addressed.
According to the public relations office of Amirkabir University of Technology, Dr. Mohammad Amani Tehran, during the ceremony to begin collaboration between the Nika Textile Group and the Amirkabir University for offering skill-enhancement courses, divided educational training into two sections: formal education and short-term or specialized courses. He explained that specialized or short-term courses are designed to enhance knowledge and help individuals develop their intellectual foundations. Therefore, this part of education is indispensable and cannot be considered trivial or insignificant.
The professor continued, saying: "Perhaps we should not have allocated 12 years for pre-university education and 4 years for undergraduate studies. The topic of skills and competencies goes beyond just academic foundations, making it an essential discussion."
The head of the Faculty of Textile Engineering at Amirkabir University of Technology, emphasized: "We can all conclude that successful individuals in the fields of production, trade, and economy are those equipped with both academic and short-term education. Therefore, we must take these types of education seriously."
Amani, noting that there are important global concerns facing us today, stated: "Sustainability and sustainable industry are serious issues, and we cannot overlook them. Furthermore, the digital electronics field is crucial in the industry today, and success in these areas requires acquiring both knowledge and skills."
The professor from Amirkabir University of Technology, reiterating that the university’s share in offering short-term courses is at most 20%, continued: "We need to launch programs to revisit and re-create what we have learned. It is also essential to focus more on documenting knowledge, a topic we have often neglected."
He added: "In skill development, we must be able to document and transfer the accumulated knowledge that individuals hold in their minds."
Engineer Majid Ranjbar, a graduate of Amirkabir University of Technology and an entrepreneur in the textile industry, emphasized the need to create an academy to bridge the gap between industry and academia. He stated: "We must use the experiences of both professors and industry professionals by establishing this academy."
This graduate of Amirkabir University of Technology pointed out: "Although universities are currently creating motivation among students through various courses, including short-term training programs, there remains a sense of despair among students. We must play our part in increasing the hope of students and graduates."
He concluded by noting: "Unfortunately, the situation is such that while there is skill in our factories, there is a lack of knowledge. Since the best way to learn is through teaching, we aim to combine both knowledge and skill in our training."
During the event, Engineer Mohsen Gorji, advisor to the Deputy Minister of Industry, Mines, and Trade, emphasized that the main activities we undertake in universities, industries, and governance are aimed at improving the general public's livelihood, as its importance surpasses even employment.
He further stressed the need to increase productivity in the country or economic enterprises, stating that this would create a competitive advantage and ultimately lead to the development of new markets, prosperity, and increased productivity.
He defined productivity, explaining: "Productivity means how much output we get for each unit of capital or human labor."
Gorji, noting that Iran has a cheap labor force, remarked: "One of the foundations of expensive labor forces is skilled labor, which constitutes a competitive advantage for countries. Therefore, these skilled individuals reach their expertise through education. We must work towards developing operational expertise and the realization of industrial development, which are complex fields."
Later in the ceremony, Dr. Khalil-ur-Rahman Khalilipour, a graduate of Amirkabir University of Technology, emphasized the importance of providing education for the future and empowering individuals and organizations. He stated: "The significance of focusing on this education is such that it will guarantee the success of organizations and economic enterprises, as this type of education leads to increased productivity, cost control, and success in production."
This textile industry expert also emphasized: "When we offer a product in the industry, we simultaneously provide customer experience and services, and this will create value. Therefore, providing empowerment training plays a crucial role in this area."
Khalilipour, pointing out that universities can fill the gaps in empowerment training, stated: "These institutions, by providing necessary education to graduates, can not only empower individuals but also make research more purposeful."
He stressed: "The textile industry covers various areas, and we must work towards specializing the education in this field. This way, individuals who have been trained will be able to quickly integrate into the job market."
At the end of the ceremony, the Nikademy brand was unveiled in the presence of Dr. Mohammad Amani, Head of the Faculty of Textile Engineering, Dr. Ali Asghar Asgharian Jeddi, one of the veteran professors of the faculty, Engineer Ranjbar, Head of the Nika Industrial Group, and Dr. Khalilipour, Head of Nikademy Institute.
