AASTS: ensuring knowledge transfer

The Arab Academy for Science, Technology, and Maritime Transport Sharjah Branch (AASTS), has successfully participated in Posidonia 2022, which was held last month at the Athens Metropolitan Expo, Greece.

The trade show builds on its decade-long legacy of uniting international ship owners and showcasing the latest products and services in the industry, AASTS said in a release.

Through its participation in Posidonia, the Academy is exhibiting its comprehensive programs, hi-tech training facilities and smart education systems. It is also promoting its advanced training methods, thus working towards its mission of inspiring the younger generation to be a part of the maritime industry.

Dr. Ismail Abdel Ghaffar Ismail Farag, President of the Arab Academy for Science, Technology, and Maritime Transport, said: “The maritime sector is integral to the global economy. Hence, ensuring knowledge transfer in the industry, across the region is one of our key objectives. We believe in catalysing its growth by educating aspiring maritime professionals, who will transform the sector with their work. At Posidonia, we are looking forward to building on this objective. Apart from this, we aim to not only promote our specialised programs, but also reach out to students who are looking for a competitive curriculum in maritime studies.”
