The event took place at the National Institute of Management (NIM) in Karachi from May 23rd to May 25th\, 2024. The programme served as the initial stage of an undertaking aimed at equipping 30 participating deans with essential administrative\, financial\, and strategic planning skills. \nThe training programme was designed to enhance the deans’ skills in strategic planning\, decision-making\, and resource management\, with the recognition that they may potentially become Vice Chancellors in the future. The comprehensive three-day programme features presentations by seasoned experts on various crucial topics\, such as Leadership Team Building\, Public Procurement Procedures\, PPRA and SPPRA Rules\, the ORIC and Research Ecosystem\, and Managing the Audit Paras. \nDuring the last day\, Prof. Dr. S.M.

This training programme is a significant measure in bridging that gap. \nProf. Dr. Tariq Rafi praised the deans for successfully finishing the programme and urged them to apply their newly acquired talents at their own universities and train others. The event concluded with the distribution of certificates to all attendees\, indicating their dedication to guiding their colleges towards excellence. \n  \n     \n  \n  URL:https://sindhhec.gov.pk/event/prof_dev_prog_deans_nipa/ LOCATION:NIPA Karachi\, Block 6 Gulshan-e-Iqbal\, Karachi\, Karachi City\, Sindh\, Karachi\, Sindh\, 75300\, Pakistan ORGANIZER;CN="Sindh Higher Education Commission":MAILTO:info@sindhhec.gov.pk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Karachi:20240405T180000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Karachi:20240405T210000 DTSTAMP:20260425T152222 CREATED:20240406T160437Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240406T160437Z UID:15583-1712340000-1712350800@sindhhec.gov.pk SUMMARY:Sindh HEC Hosts Prestigious Iftar-Dinner for Vice Chancellors & Stakeholders DESCRIPTION:KARACHI: The Sindh Higher Education Commission (Sindh HEC) organized a grand Iftar-dinner on Friday at the Movenpick Hotel.\nThis exclusive event was held in honour of the respected vice chancellors representing both public and private universities across the province\, marking a momentous occasion in fostering collaboration and camaraderie within the academic community.\nThe Sindh HEC Iftar-dinner garnered significant attention and attendance\, boasting the presence of distinguished guests including representatives from the consulates of the United States\, Turkey\, Malaysia\, Iran\, and various heads of respective fields.\nNotable figures from the U.S Consulate included Anamaria Karrels\, Public Diplomacy Officer; Lee McManis\, Public Affairs Officer; and Belal Rizvi\, Program Management Coordinator (Exchanges).\nTurkish Consulate General\, Cemal Sangu also graced the occasion.
