The Queen Rania Teacher Academy (QRTA) and the University of Jordan (UJ) signed an agreement aimed to transfer the pre-service Teacher Education Professional Diploma (TEPD) into a building in the university.

The UJ, Al Yarmok, Mutah and Hashemite universities will offer the programme in full independence without any interference, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

The move came following the announcement made by the steering committee of the TEPD programme about a USAID-funded governmental plan with the aim of expanding the geography of the programme to be offered across the Kingdom.
