The program aims to equip engineering and technical staff of Jordanian industrial companies with the specialized technical skills needed to leverage various applications of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This contributes to digital transformation, productivity improvement, operational efficiency, and cost reduction. The program complements a consultancy service launched under the “Empower” project, which assists industrial companies by assessing readiness and preparing implementation plans for adopting Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies.
The training program recently included ten specialized courses covering key areas such as smart factory systems, programmable logic controllers (PLC), industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), artificial intelligence in industrial applications, enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, industrial robotics, cybersecurity for industrial systems, and augmented reality (AR) in industrial environments. About 180 trainees participated, including engineers, technical staff from industrial companies, IT professionals, and recent graduates in engineering and technical fields. The courses combined theoretical instruction with practical exercises using modern industrial tools and systems simulating real factory environments. Further training sessions are planned to complete the training of a total of 280 participants.
The program achieved several significant outcomes, including enhancing practical knowledge of Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies, strengthening the ability to analyze industrial processes and identify opportunities for improvement and digital transformation, and supporting industrial companies in developing qualified teams for implementing digital transformation projects.
The “Empowering Small and Medium Industries through Fourth Industrial Revolution Technologies” project contributes to achieving the goals of Jordan’s Economic Modernization Vision by supporting industrial digital transformation, creating high-quality job opportunities, and building a more efficient, flexible, and sustainable industrial sector.
