25 MARCH 2008, TUESDAY 10.00 AM- SIGNING CEREMONY OF THE MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN JAMIYAH BUSINESS SCHOOL (JBS) AND AL-MADINAH INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY (MEDIU) AT JAMIYAH SINGAPORE.

Al-Madinah International University has moved one step forward to globalize the market of Arabic language studies. The collaboration between Jamiyah Business School (JBS) and Al-Madinah International University (MEDIU) provides learners in Singapore a rare opportunity to learn this rich language. Through this joint venture students can participate in MEDIU’s Arabic Short Courses from Beginner to Advanced Level. This will also allow them access to MEDIU’s vast wealth of leading-edge educational tools and information to enable them to succeed in their learning endeavors. This project was met with open arms due to the emphasis and encouragement of learning a third language by the government of Singapore.

This Memorandum of Agreement, inshaallah, paves the way for JBS to offer MEDIU’s other language and Islamic Studies programs at the Diploma and Bachelor’s levels.
