Amman, Jordan — Integrated Technology Group (ITG) has concluded its participation in the TechForward Program, a national initiative managed by the Information and Communications Technology Association of Jordan — intaj, designed to strengthen collaboration between universities, young talent, and private-sector companies in support of innovation and digital transformation.
As part of the program, ITG collaborated with three students from Yarmouk University on a practical technology project focused on incorporating Artificial Intelligence into ITG’s Applicant Tracking System (ATS). The project explored the use of AI to enhance applicant processing, improve candidate screening, and support more efficient selection workflows.
The AI-enhanced ATS project contributed to improving the efficiency of the recruitment selection process and accelerated applicant processing by 30%, demonstrating the value of connecting academic talent with real business challenges.
This collaboration reflects the core purpose of TechForward: transforming student projects into practical solutions that address private sector needs while creating meaningful exposure for students to professional environments and applied innovation.
Commenting on the program, Zaid Risheq, Learning & Development Lead at ITG, said:
“TechForward is a valuable national initiative that aligns with ITG’s commitment to supporting young talent and contributing to the development of Jordan’s ICT sector. Through this collaboration, the students demonstrated strong technical capability and a clear understanding of how AI can be applied to real business challenges. We are pleased to have worked with them, and they will be considered for future vacancies and other relevant opportunities within ITG.”
ITG’s participation in TechForward forms part of its broader commitment to investing in future talent, supporting university-industry collaboration, and advancing practical innovation that contributes to Jordan’s digital economy.
By engaging students in real business challenges, ITG continues to help bridge the gap between academic learning and workplace readiness, while creating opportunities for young technology professionals to apply their skills in impactful and market-relevant ways.
