In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and companions.
Dear colleagues,
My beloved students,
Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you all,
It is truly a source of pride for us to gather here today as we move forward with confidence under the umbrella of a bold national vision — Saudi Vision 2030 — which aims to build a prosperous knowledge-based society and an economy driven by innovation and qualified national talent.
At the College of Nursing in Abha, we are working diligently to align with this vision by developing academic programs, enhancing the quality of education, and fostering critical thinking, scientific research, and continuous learning among our students — all in accordance with the evolving needs of the healthcare labor market.
Saudi Vision 2030 emphasizes the empowerment of women, the improvement of educational quality, and the advancement of the healthcare sector. Our role in educational, academic, and developmental affairs is to transform these goals into tangible outcomes within classrooms and training facilities — by providing a stimulating learning environment, maintaining high academic standards, and offering curricula centered on competency and excellence.
My dear students,
You are the cornerstone of the future of nursing in the Kingdom. A great responsibility lies before you — to rise to the aspirations of your nation. Let knowledge and dedication be your mission, and let ambition and excellence be your constant pursuit.
In conclusion, we ask Allah to make this academic year a year full of achievement and giving, and to make us all active contributors in realizing the objectives of Vision 2030, for the benefit of our beloved homeland and honorable society.
Peace and blessings be upon you all.
Vice Dean of the College of Nursing for Educational, Academic, and Developmental Affairs
