    Armenia

    Striving to improve the quality of tourism/hospitality and
    pharmaceutical education as well as to bridge the gap between the
    knowledge provided by higher education institutions and the needs
    of employers, the USAID Competitive Armenian Private Sector (CAPS)
    Project, in collaboration with the American University of Armenia
    Extension Program, will conduct Summer Schools for Tourism and
    Pharmaceutical students on July 12-30.

    Over 40 second, third, and fourth-year students representing European
    Regional Academy, Yerevan State College of Humanities, Yerevan
    State Armenian-Greek College of Tourism, Service and Food Industry,
    Russian-Armenian (Slavonic) University, Yerevan State University
    (YSU), State Linguistic University after V. Brusov, the Armenian
    Tourism Institute, Yerevan State University will attend the Summer
    School for Tourism Students. Likewise, 30 pharmaceutical students of
    Yerevan State Medical University after M.Heratsi, YSU Department of
    Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Mehrabyan Medical Institute will take
    part at the First Summer School for Pharmaceutical Students.

    The training participants will acquire knowledge and skills in
    their disciplines, discuss the needs of relevant specialties, learn
    best practices of setting up businesses in their fields, develop a
    strategic plan and collaborate with foreign partners. The classes will
    be conducted by CAPS specialists and managers of leading organizations
    in the fields. Upon completion, the graduates of the Summer Schools
    will receive certificates of participation.

    "This initiative aims to develop students' knowledge,
    contribute to heightened awareness of practical issues
    of concerned fields of study, as well as promote greater
    cooperation and understanding between academia and private sector of
    employers. Additionally, this is an excellent networking opportunity
    for students of different educational institutions majoring in the
    same discipline," Anush Shahverdyan, CAPS Workforce Development
    Specialist says.

    All those interested are invited to the opening of the Summer Schools,
    which will be held on Tuesday, July 13, at 3:00 pm at the American
    University of Armenia P. Avedisean Bld. (40 Baghramyan Ave.) 4th floor.
