Orange starts partnership with French University in Armenia

Yerevan/Mediamax/. Today Orange Armenia signed a partnership agreement with the French University Foundation in Armenia.

Students of the University will be provided the chance to pass their internship at Orange and participate in the training and qualification courses organized for them by the best specialists working at the company, who will also provide consultancy services to the University.

Bruno Duthoit, the CEO of Orange Armenia, said: “The French University already has a tradition spanning a number of years in Armenia and has become one of the best universities in the country, producing alumni that are sought after by employers. We are happy for this new level of cooperation, which will allow students to start their work experience in a European workplace, and in the future to have more chances to get a job, including at our company. This cooperation will also allow the application of our business experience in an academic establishment.”

Orange Armenia also brought another piece of good news to 26 students of the University.

Through its philanthropic organization, the Orange Foundation, 3 million AMD were transferred to the university as a scholarship for those students, proposed by the university and selected based on two basic criteria, i.e., social need of the students’ families and their overall academic progress.
