The Faculty of Information Technology at Zarqa University, in cooperation
with the Deanship of Student Affairs and the Crown Prince Foundation – Zarqa
Office, organized a specialized training workshop entitled “Designing
and Programming an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Agent.” The workshop
was conducted by Engineer Mohammad Hamdan and attended by a number of students
and young people interested in technology and artificial intelligence.
The workshop aimed to equip participants with the technical knowledge and
programming skills necessary to design and develop AI agents capable of
performing tasks, answering inquiries, organizing information, and helping
users complete their work efficiently and effectively.
The training introduced participants to the concept of AI agents and how
they operate, methods for writing prompts and programming instructions, and
techniques for integrating AI agents with various data sources and digital
tools. It also included hands-on activities that enabled participants to
develop a functional AI agent prototype that could be further enhanced and
applied in education, professional settings, and entrepreneurship.
For his part, Dr. Hail Khafajah, Dean of the Faculty of Information
Technology, emphasized the importance of organizing such specialized
training workshops, which keep pace with rapid developments in artificial
intelligence and contribute to enhancing the technical and practical skills of
students and young people. He highlighted the Faculty's commitment to providing
an application-oriented learning environment that enables participants to stay
abreast of the latest technologies and utilize them across various fields.
Dr. Khafajah further noted that, through its cooperation with national
institutions and relevant organizations, the Faculty seeks to strengthen
partnerships with the local community, expand training and professional
development opportunities, and empower young people with the digital skills
required by the labor market. These efforts aim to prepare qualified
individuals capable of innovation and competition in emerging technological
fields.
This workshop forms part of Zarqa University's ongoing efforts to promote
practical training, foster a culture of innovation and digital
entrepreneurship, and empower students and young people to harness artificial
intelligence technologies in developing ideas and projects that address
community needs and meet future demands.
