community and to fulfill its needs, PPU has established the continuing education
department (CED) in 1989. CED plays a vital role in providing capacity building
services benefiting from the PPU resources. CED provides a wide range of training
programs to various beneficiary audiences. Most of the CED training programs are
designed to fulfill the needs of the local community.
The CED is capable

administrative, languages, engineering, vocational, computer, women issues, in addition
to public activities. The CED has a full access to all UGU facilities, technicians,
centers and faculties, PPU well equipped classrooms, more than 36 labs and workshops
and 150 faculty members of various degrees and skills. In addition to this, part
of the CED trainers is from other local institutions.
The curricula and
objectives of most of the CED training programs are in place to carry out any future
training. Furthermore, the department is capable of designing, developing, and delivering
most of these and any other programs whenever required within a short period of
