KUWAIT: On Saturday, the Public Authority for Applied Education and Training (PAAET) launched its admission plan for the academic year 2024/2025. The application process for applied colleges, institutes and training courses will be conducted electronically and will continue until January 15. Dr Fawzi Al-Doukhi, Dean of Admission and Registration at PAAET, announced that male and female students holding secondary certificates and their equivalents can access the Authority’s electronic registration system to complete the application process.

Dr Doukhi explained that the staff at the authority’s pavilion at The Avenues mall are fully prepared to respond to students’ inquiries daily from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm until next Tuesday. He stressed the importance of entering data correctly within the specified period and reviewing the information related to the announced percentages and eligible categories.

He added that the deanship of admission and registration will be available in the admission hall (No. 7) at the Authority’s building in Adailiya during official working hours to assist students and resolve any issues throughout the registration period. Entry to the hall will be limited to students only, without their parents.

Dr Doukhi noted that most students will not need to visit the admission halls, as registration is primarily electronic. However, certain groups, including holders of old secondary certificates (from 2011 onwards), holders of foreign and bilingual secondary certificates from within Kuwait and holders of certificates from outside Kuwait, will need to visit the halls to complete specific procedures. These students must make an appointment through the authority’s website.

Students can access their forms throughout the application period, make amendments, and change their preferences without needing to visit the admission halls. This procedure will conclude at the end of the application period on January 15. Dr Doukhi also mentioned that alongside the admission and registration plan, the plan for submitting grants to the director general is open and will continue until the end of the application period.

He emphasized the need for students to ensure all application requirements are completed, submit the required documents, and attend tests and interviews on time to avoid missing application opportunities. Dr Doukhi urged all students and parents to visit the authority’s pavilion at The Avenues mall during the initial phase to address any inquiries and questions about applying to PAAET’s colleges and institutes. He wished all students success in choosing the right path and achieving their future ambitions. — KUNA
