AMMAN – HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, founder and chairman of Talal
Abu-Ghazaleh Global Digital (TAG.GD), has announced the number of graduates
from Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Digital Polytechnic (TAG.GDP) reached 100 to
this date. This remarkable achievement marks a significant milestone in the TAG
Polytechnic’s journey and reinforces its vision toward establishing a new
global model of skills and achievement-based digital professional education.
On this occasion, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh congratulated all graduates,
expressing his pride in their achievement, commitment, and determination in
developing their skills and knowledge. He emphasized that they represent the
TAG Polytechnic’s founding cohort and its first ambassadors, stating that their
success is practical proof of transforming the TAG.GDP’s vision into reality.
“I have always believed that the value of education lies not just
in obtaining a certificate, rather, in what a person can accomplish with what
they have learned. Therefore, your graduation is not the end of an educational
phase, but the beginning of a new journey of learning, innovation, and
achievement,” Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh said.
He added that TAG.GDP was established based on a vision aimed at
reconnecting education with the needs and demands of the future labor market.
This is achieved through professional digital pathways that focus on building
practical skills and enabling learners to continuously develop their skills,
rather than relying only on traditional educational models based on theoretical
knowledge.
Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh stressed that reaching the first 100 graduates
marks the beginning of a global journey, noting that the next phase will focus
on expanding the TAG Polytechnic’s reach to more countries and communities
worldwide, starting with the Arab countries and the Global South and extending
to international markets.
“We aim for the TAG
Polytechnic to reach every country in the world, giving every individual,
wherever they are, the opportunity to acquire the skills needed to play an
active role in the digital economy and shape their future,” he added.
Moreover, TAG.GDP’s model is based on progressive digital
professional pathways that enable learners to move from foundational knowledge
and skills to advanced and specialized levels in digital fields aligned with
the rapidly evolving needs of the global job market.
The TAG.GDP’s model is also designed to support ongoing learning,
where certificates are not an end in themselves, but rather part of an ongoing
journey to develop professional skills, capabilities, and keep pace with
technological advancements.
Addressing the graduates, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh concluded: “You are the
first 100 graduates, and the number of those who follow will be in the
thousands. However, you will always remain in our memory as the pioneers who
marked its beginning, and your names will forever be associated with the
founding era and initial launch of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Digital
Polytechnic.”
It is worth mentioning that the graduation of this first cohort is
part of TAG.GD’s initiative to develop a global digital education model aimed
at providing professional and digital learning opportunities and building
competencies that empower learners to navigate the demands of Artificial
Intelligence (AI), the digital economy, and transformations in the future labor
market.
