As has been announced before, and as posted at our website, we had formed an Academic Working Group of professors from a number of universities to work together in several activities related to academic development and research in the ITSM field.
This group is currently working on development of an undergraduate university course on ITSM which is intended to be presented after completion to the responsible academic governmental authorities in Egypt for approval and adoption.
Since the participants are mostly university professors with limited availability, and since the work is not compensated, the progress and interest levels are so low that we are not witnessing production.
We expect the result of this work, in the form of undergraduate ITSM curriculum and course material, to be of interest to a wide audience in Egypt, including not only governmental universities and academic authorities, but also private universities.
We thus call for sponsorship fund to cover the work expenses and compensation for participants in this group for their efforts in developing the prospected product. We expect sponsorship from private universities interested in obtaining this study course after development, or from industry community who may like to encourage academic development.
Provided that fund is available, we estimate a duration of 6 months of development work by the participating professors, with a total estimated budget of 61,000 L.E.
For interested prospected sponsors, please write to: president@eaitsm.org to discuss and sign a sponsorship agreement.
