Qatar tribune Dr Saheim Khalaf Al-Temimi Education is no longer just a gateway to earning a degree; it is a lifelong journey that opens doors to academic knowledge and equips students with the tools they need for future success. What began as a step to support students in gaining admission to prestigious universities, both locally and internationally, has grown into a comprehensive platform dedicated to shaping their academic and professional futures, empowering them to confidently and competently lead their own paths forward. In a world full of choices, selecting the right academic path is one of the biggest challenges students face. The goal goes beyond university admission; it’s about building an academic journey that paves the way for lasting success in their professional lives. At the Academic Bridge Program, we understand that each student’s path is unique, and we are committed to providing personalized guidance that meets their individual needs, acting as a compass to help them achieve their academic and career goals with confidence and clarity. We also take pride in fostering an inclusive environment that supports students with disabilities, ensuring that every student, regardless of their background, can reach their full potential and realize their aspirations. At the Academic Bridge Program, we go beyond simply advising on course selection; we open doors for students to discover themselves, giving them the chance to explore their strengths, identify their true passions, and make informed decisions that shape their futures. This integration of academic excellence and personal development equips our students with the skills they need to navigate the crossroads between their academic aspirations and career dreams, guiding them toward a path of success. As part of our commitment to continuously enhancing our academic programs, we are proud to introduce three new academic tracks this year: STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), Social Sciences, and Humanities and Visual Arts. These tracks are designed to go beyond traditional teaching methods by blending theoretical learning with practical application. Now, our students can choose courses that align with their academic ambitions and the fields they wish to pursue at university. This integrated approach ensures that our students not only gain knowledge but also develop the practical skills necessary to adapt and excel in future work environments, equipping them with the tools needed to achieve excellence and leadership in their careers. Beyond academic education, we believe that learning is an ongoing, dynamic process. That’s why we place great importance on continuous education and professional development. We are committed to offering advanced learning opportunities not only for our students, professionals, and academics at the Academic Bridge Program but also for the broader community. We understand that building a strong and thriving society relies on empowering individuals to acquire the knowledge and skills that enable them to contribute to the nation’s progress. Our belief that learning isn’t confined to a specific stage or group drives us to offer programs and workshops in collaboration with local and international strategic partners. Throughout the year, we design and deliver training and professional development courses that meet global standards, accessible to all members of the community. These courses aim to enhance personal and professional capacities for everyone seeking self-improvement. In doing so, we contribute to building a knowledgeable and innovative society, equipped to face challenges and achieve sustainable development. With our unwavering dedication to providing high-quality education, enhancing professional skills, and fostering a commitment to lifelong learning, I am confident that the Academic Bridge Program will remain a cornerstone in shaping the academic and professional futures of our students. It’s not merely about crossing a bridge; it’s about building this bridge to pave a path toward a bright future filled with opportunities and achievements. Copy 22/11/2024 10

Godrej Properties, Lodha Group On Top As India's 26 Major Listed Realty Firms Sell ₹35,000 Crore Worth Properties In Q2U.S. president-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday named Andrew Ferguson as the next chair of the Federal Trade Commission. He will replace Lina Khan, who became a lightning rod for Wall Street and Silicon Valley by blocking billions of dollars' worth of corporate acquisitions and suing Amazon and Meta while alleging anticompetitive behaviour. Ferguson is already one of the FTC's five commissioners, which is currently made up of three Democrats and two Republicans. “Andrew has a proven record of standing up to Big Tech censorship, and protecting Freedom of Speech in our Great Country,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, adding, “Andrew will be the most America First, and pro-innovation FTC Chair in our Country’s History.” The replacement of Khan likely means that the FTC will operate with a lighter touch when it comes to antitrust enforcement. The new chair is expected to appoint new directors of the FTC's antitrust and consumer protection divisions. “These changes likely will make the FTC more favorable to business than it has been in recent years, though the extent to which is to be determined,” wrote Anthony DiResta, a consumer protection attorney at Holland & Knight, in a recent analysis. Deals that were blocked by the Biden administration could find new life with Trump in command. For example, the new leadership could be more open to a proposed merger between the country’s two biggest supermarket chains, Kroger and Albertsons, which forged a US$24.6 billion deal to combine in 2022. Two judges halted the merger Tuesday night. The FTC had filed a lawsuit in federal court earlier this year to block the merger, claiming the deal would eliminate competition, leading to higher prices and lower wages for workers. The two companies say a merger would help them lower prices and compete against bigger rivals like Walmart. One of the judges said the FTC had shown it was likely to prevail in the administrative hearing. Yet given the widespread public concern over high grocery prices, the Trump administration may not fully abandon the FTC's efforts to block the deal, some experts have said. And the FTC may continue to scrutinize Big Tech firms for any anticompetitive behaviour. Many Republican politicians have accused firms such as Meta of censoring conservative views, and some officials in Trump's orbit, most notably vice-president-elect JD Vance, have previously expressed support for Khan's scrutiny of Big Tech firms. In addition to Fergson, Trump also announced Tuesday that he had selected Jacob Helberg as the next undersecretary of state for economic growth, energy and the environment.MINNEAPOLIS — Two prospective marijuana business owners who were barred from participating in a license lottery are suing Minnesota cannabis regulators. The Office of Cannabis Management announced Friday, Nov. 22, that it will hold a drawing on Tuesday to determine who will operate the state’s first legal marijuana businesses. ADVERTISEMENT The OCM turned to a lottery because more than 1,800 applicants had sought 282 licenses. The first to apply are those considered social equity applicants under the law. They include people who live in high-poverty areas, those harmed by the war on drugs, and military veterans. This week, regulators disqualified two-thirds of the applicants for a variety of reasons. In a lawsuit, Jodi Connolly alleges that OCM gave no reason for denying her application. Connolly’s co-plaintiff, Cristina Aranguiz, said she received only a cursory explanation. The two call the rejections “arbitrary and capricious,” and they want a judge to stop the lottery while their lawsuit is pending. In an email to MPR News on Friday, a spokesperson for the Office of Cannabis Management said he cannot comment on the litigation, but OCM and still plans to move ahead with the scheduled lottery.

PlayStation Insider Hints at Major New Announcements Coming SoonPep Guardiola admits the buck stops with him as Manchester City bid to arrest their dramatic slump in form. The champions crashed to a fifth straight defeat in all competitions – something not experienced by the club in more than 18 years – as they were thrashed 4-0 by Tottenham at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. The loss, which was also a third in succession in the Premier League and shattered a 52-game unbeaten home run, damaged the club’s hopes of winning an unprecedented fifth title in a row. It is the worst run of Guardiola’s glittering managerial career and the City boss, who extended his contract until 2027 last week, is determined to turn the situation around. The Catalan said: “When we start to lose I say to the people I have to find a way, I have to. It’s my duty, my responsibility, to find a way to be more consistent, that our game will be better and win games. “This is what we have to do.” City have been hampered by injuries to key players in recent weeks, particularly by the absence of Ballon d’Or-winning midfielder Rodri, who has been sidelined for the remainder of the season. Problems have emerged at both ends of the field with a lack of clean sheets – just five in 19 outings this term – and a shortage of goals being scored on occasions, like Saturday, when the prolific Erling Haaland has an off-day. Guardiola said: “We don’t expect to lose important players but it’s happened and you have to find a way. We have to find other abilities. “I don’t think we didn’t create enough chances. We created a lot of chances, clear ones at 0-0, 0-1, 0-2. “Of course we want a lot of players to score but it’s happened now. “I know at the Etihad when we are there and we score goals our momentum is there, but now we are not solid enough. That is the truth. “In both sides normally we are solid but we concede the goals. Now in both sides we are not good enough. “In these situations, what do you have do to? Keep going my friends, keep going. “We have done it in the past – not in terms of results being as bad as now – but we have done it and we face the situation and move forward.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — American Airlines briefly grounded flights nationwide Tuesday because of a technical problem just as the Christmas travel season kicked into overdrive and winter weather threatened more potential problems for those planning to fly or drive. Government regulators cleared American flights to get airborne about an hour after the Federal Aviation Administration ordered a national ground stop for the airline. The order, which prevented planes from taking off, was issued at the airline's request after it experienced trouble with its flight operating system, or FOS. The airline blamed technology from one of its vendors.
