Community Service & Continuing Education Deanship (CSCED) at the Islamic University of Gaza (IUG) is a Palestinian non-profit civil society organization. It has long experience (more than 17 years, since its establishment) in curriculum development, training, designing and implementing of training programs in several fields (management, computer programs, engineering software, languages, accounting, finance, etc.
Responding to the urgent demand to widen horizons of education and training, and because many students and individuals in the Gaza Strip cannot pursuit their studies abroad due to the tight siege and crossings closure, CSCED established a special trend in training called (Distance E-Learning Programs). Through this step, all categories of the Palestinian society, especially in Gaza Strip can obtain their education or professional trainings via internet and other distance learning methods.
Distance E-Learning Programs at IUG have two directions. First, academic and non-academic programs in partnership with Middle East Africa Learning Systems, a MENA-based consultancy organization with its leadership having contributed as notably reputed consultants and educational programs, for those who are interested in gaining MSc or PhD by research or professional training courses in management online. Participants will obtain professional accredited certificates from licensed centers and universities that MEALS deal with as;
· Asia e University in Malaysia
· Key Alliance consultancy Co. in Kingdom of Bahrain
· Act Education Solutions Limited in USA
Second, IUG and CSCED conduct their online courses in many fields, such as Memorizing the Holy Quran, Palestinian Studies in English, Islamic Studies in English and Arabic for Non-native Speakers. Through this, IUG aims to provide overseas students and participants with high-quality training in areas that they are keen to acquire, but cannot come in Gaza Strip due to siege and crossings closure. Moreover, IUG seeks the help of MEALS to obtain accreditation and development of its courses from other professional centers and universities. Therefore, participants will be able to have accredited certificates from both IUG and its partners.
