The origin of the chair

​​​​​​​​​​

The idea of ​​establishing a chair for the development of the intellectual, psychological, cultural and civilizational aspects of the youth emerged from those visions that illuminated the meeting of His Royal Highness Prince Fahd bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Governor of Tabuk with His Excellency the President of the University, leaders and academics, which His Highness preferred to present, through a number of directives And profound ideas of a scientific nature, through his presentation of a number of intellectual, cultural and social concepts related to the thinking of the new generation and its relationship to education, on the one hand, and with practical reality on the other hand, and those visions were a new way of thinking about how the university can contribute as a great scientific edifice in guiding young people, whether Inside or outside the region, developing their thinking mechanisms and helping them overcome the obstacles that face them, by providing them with knowledge, providing them with a suitable environment, to invest their relationship with knowledge and not be limited to the purely scientific aspects, and the necessity of linking it to reality and its challenges.

These visions have contributed to pushing the university to think about establishing a chair that achieves a number of goals in this field, and works according to various mechanisms and methods, aiming to manage minds and make them with a correct orientation in the field of national development, spreading the culture of self-employment, volunteer work and social work, and be a scientific nucleus. And a process to take care of youth issues and link them directly to society and guide them intellectually, psychologically, culturally and socially, so that they are able to contribute to the development of their country and society.

The concern for youth in society stems from the fact that their hopes and participation in this society, and their energies, values ​​and principles, are what shape their future, and Saudi youth, like all young people in any society, aspire to lead a fruitful and busy life, to build a family, and to participate in a greater degree in The national and global arena, and since young people are the next generation of heads of households and of the workforce, their decisions will affect the welfare of the entire nation. Hence the importance of this age group, in general, and in Saudi society in particular, becomes evident.

Hence the idea of ​​establishing the Prince Fahd Bin Sultan Chair to study and develop youth issues. This chair will mean the development of youth in Saudi society in general and in the Tabuk region in particular, whether by conducting studies and research related to youth issues, or by holding various scientific and training activities such as seminars and conferences.

Training is defined as structured activities to provide knowledge and skills to trainees, so that they can understand concepts, reconfigure behavior, and apply learning to different situations with increasing efficiency to achieve the desired results. Training focuses on giving the trainees the skills and knowledge they need to do their work.

The training aims primarily to form a collective work team whose members have the required competence and experience to perform all the tasks assigned to them in the organization in order to achieve development of their personal skills and a distinguished individual and organizational performance level.

A lot of literature emphasizes that training in the world of contemporary societies and institutions is the tool and means of development, as well as the tool that, if properly invested and employed, will be able to achieve efficiency and adequacy in performance and production.

The availability of adequately trained human resources in any institution is a matter of utmost importance for its success, and education and training plays an important role in this regard.

Through training, we ensure that we continue to develop the capabilities of the trainee - each according to his specialization - to keep pace with the latest developments in his field, as professions of all kinds are an application interface for science and knowledge and they are variable elements influenced by several factors such as the knowledge explosion represented in technical progress in all areas of life as well as the ease of information flow From one community to another and from one civilization to another.

 The importance of training is especially important during service, as it is the basic mechanism that ensures the development of employees on a continuous basis in a manner that ensures that they carry out their tasks, responsibilities and duties in a manner that is commensurate with the developments of their work that were not present at the time of preparation before the service, as training provides new knowledge, adds various information, and gives skills and abilities It influences attitudes, modifies thoughts, changes behavior, and develops habits and styles.

In light of this comes the importance of training as a purposeful activity that has a great role in human life, hence the idea of ​​establishing a training program within the activities and activities of the Prince Fahd Bin Sultan Chair for Youth Research and Development, a procedure that reflects the awareness on the part of the Chair Authority of the importance of the training activity in developing the capabilities of the children Society and develop their capabilities to keep pace with the changing developments in the knowledge society.
