The main purpose of the visit was to discuss and collaborate in conducting several language and training courses.

During the meeting, a list of courses (language and development courses) was put forward and thoroughly negotiated including (Excel, IELTS, TOEFL ibt & iTP, English language course for adult and young learners etc...). After that, the delegation along with both Dr. Sattar and Mr. Ivan joined two demo teaching sessions presented by two teaching staff at the University of Zakho for the purpose of teaching practice evaluation.


The visit ended with a short orientation session in which the delegation was better acquainted with the teaching facilities both centers have in terms of teaching halls, offices, and testing labs. At the end of the meeting, Ms. Loucine and the accompanying team thanked both Dr. Sattar and Mr. Ivan for the fruitful outcome of the meeting.


It is worth mentioning that this visit would be followed by a series of other visits both the University of Zakho and the AUK would conduct in the future.
