Workshop: "Integrating the Odoo Ecosystem into Teaching and Research" Following the signing ceremony, Odoo experts led an intensive workshop exclusively for the Faculty members. The session focused on three key pillars:
1. Exploring the Odoo Ecosystem: An introduction to Odoo’s modular structure, including Accounting, HR, Supply Chain, and Marketing, providing lecturers with an overview of how a digital business operates synchronously.
2. ERP Integration Methodology: Guidance on utilizing Odoo Education accounts to design case studies, allowing students to practice on the software directly during class hours.
3. Digitizing Academic Management: Discussions on applying Odoo’s tools to manage research projects and collaborate effectively within an academic environment.
The workshop fostered a vibrant atmosphere of discussion. Lecturers directly experienced the interface and raised questions on optimizing Odoo's features to suit the specific requirements of various subjects.
The event concluded successfully, setting high expectations for standardizing digital skills among faculty members. This provides a solid foundation for training a generation of FBA students who are technologically savvy and ready for the demands of the global labor market.
