Memorandum of Understanding Between CFA Society Egypt and TKH— Coventry School of Business

 

 In line with CFA Society Egypt’s efforts to support and advance the human capital of the finance industry through partnerships with educational institutions in Egypt that follow best educational practices, the CFA Society Egypt has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with TKH— Coventry School of Business. The aim of this collaboration is to strengthen academic and professional cooperation and prepare qualified young professionals capable of contributing to teams in financial institutions and in investment roles in both local and regional levels.

The MoU was signed by Mr. Ashraf El-Khatib, Vice Chairman of the CFA Society Egypt, and Professor Dr. Yasser Sakr, President of The Knowledge Hub Universities, in the presence of Mr. Ahmed Abou El-Saad, President of CFA Society Egypt, Dr. Shahira Samir, Vice President of Knowledge International Universities, Dr. Rasha El Gendi, Head of TKH— Coventry School of Business, Dr. Marian Hany, Course Director – Accounting and Finance, and Dr. Hossam Omara, Deputy Course Director – Accounting and Finance at TKH— Coventry School of Business, and a number of representatives from both sides.

Enhancing the Link Between Academic and Professional Sectors

The MoU aims to develop practical and professional skills for students through a number of initiatives, including:

  • Providing internship and practical opportunities for university students who have qualified for the finals of the Research Challenge organized by the Society.
  • Supporting faculty members by providing speakers and visiting professors who hold the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation.
  • Organizing joint events and conferences to enhance interaction between academics and professionals in the financial sector.
  • Support Implementing the CFA ambassadors’ program at TKH-Coventry School of business.

In this context, Professor Yasser Sakr expressed his happiness with the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding, noting that the signing of the memorandum is part of the implementation of the educational institution’s strategy.
