The ministers of industry and education, Hussein Haj Hassan and Marwan Hamadeh, opened for the first time in Lebanon the works of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) affiliated committee involved with setting quality specifications in academic institutions. The event which took place yesterday was organized by the Lebanese Standards and Specifications Institution (LIBNOR), with the participation of representatives from 25 countries, the head of the Specialized International Committee at ISO, Sonyong Yoon, and ISO experts. On the occasion, Hamadeh said the development of educational institutions according to modern standards in an accelerating digital world has become a necessity to enhance the administration, performance and services of these institutions. Hamadeh hailed the significance of hosting this global meeting in Beirut, given the anticipated output of a sector concerned with the orientation and preparation of Lebanon’s treasured human resources that are supposed to build and develop the nation. For his part, Haj Hassan, emphasized the importance of setting new mandatory, and not optional, specifications to establish a framework for quality and management, increase productivity and secure the safety of products as well as overall safety across the industrial, engineering, construction and food sectors, up to the administrative systems in the educational institutions.
