Al-Turath University approached readiness as a foundational educational value rather than an emergency skill as it hosted an intensive specialized course in Basic Life Support organized by Turath Al-Ajeal Academy for Training and Development within the University environment reflecting a pathway that links applied learning with human-centered responsibility and the construction of professional competence capable of effective response in critical moments.
The University highlighted that the course was implemented with direct support from the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Mr. Ali Al-Ogaili as an institutional enabler of applied training and professional readiness initiatives, the program combined theoretical instruction with hands-on practice based on the latest internationally approved first aid protocols focusing on immediate intervention in cases of cardiac and respiratory arrest and the efficient delivery of cardiopulmonary resuscitation within a training methodology that simulates real-world scenarios and measures practical performance rather than abstract knowledge.
Al-Turath University confirmed that the President of Al-Turath University Prof. Dr. Jaafar Jaber Jawad emphasized the significance of such programs as a natural extension of the University’s philosophy in transforming knowledge into responsible practice enhancing community safety and supporting the development of students’ professional identity while positioning applied competence as a parallel pathway to academic excellence.
The University reviewed that the course witnessed the participation of the Administrative Assistant Dr. Haider and the Scientific Assistant Prof. Dr. Omar Saad Ahmed alongside a selected group of teaching staff reflecting cohesive institutional engagement and reinforcing the integration between administrative leadership and academic practice in serving students.
It is significant to mention that expanding the educational impact the University indicated that an interview was conducted with participating students addressing their training experiences and the ways in which the program strengthened their practical awareness and confidence in emergency response procedures affirming the University’s commitment to sustain this pathway through progressive specialized programs that deepen skills and broaden impact within and beyond the campus community.
