Amman, Dec. 7 (Petra) – Zain Jordan, through its innovation campus (ZINC), announced the expansion of its cooperation with the launch of a strategic partnership with the "42 Irbid" program, specialized in computer science and programming. The program was inaugurated by His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II.

The "42 Irbid" program serves as an extension of the "42 Amman" program, which was inaugurated last year in the capital. Both initiatives fall under the global École 42 network, which operates more than 50 campuses in over 30 countries and is recognized for achieving high employment rates among its graduates in leading technology companies. The "42" programs in Jordan are implemented in cooperation with the Crown Prince Foundation.

Across its campuses in Amman and Irbid, the "42" program offers modern training opportunities that enhance participants’ skills in programming and computer science. It provides stimulating educational content and hands-on training in essential technical fields, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, advanced algorithms, game development, robotics programming, and systems and network administration, in line with global trends and labor market needs.

The partnership also supports the program’s focus on collaborative, project-based learning. "42 Irbid" aims to empower a wide segment of young people in the Northern Region, aged 18 to 60, by offering free training based on a gamified, self-paced learning model without traditional teachers or lectures.

In a statement, Zain Jordan said it is proud of its longstanding partnership with the Crown Prince Foundation and its role within the national ecosystem that supports and empowers Jordanian youth in line with the vision and directives of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Through this partnership, Zain, via ZINC, seeks to bolster technical education in the Kingdom and help provide an advanced learning environment for young people across all regions.
