Continuing Education Unit

A brief overview of the continuing education unit:

The Continuing Education Unit was formed at the Al-Khwarizmi College of Engineering in the academic year 2003/2004 to undertake the task of organizing continuing education courses in the college aimed at developing and updating information for engineers and non-engineering specializations in the field of work.
