Ifsomething is not done soon, there will be a danger of losing most of the junior and may be somesenior professors as well.Several strategies can be followed to improve professional development in the faculty: · Individual professional development, in which the professor pursues consulting, research, and writing books. These activities should be encouraged and rewarded by the Faculty. Some teachers are already involved in theses types of activities. Others should be encouraged to do so. · CHA with the help of a funding agency should form a collaborative alliance with one or more Universities in the US to help it in terms of professional

high enrollment, a competition takes place which motivates the members of academic staff to offer high-quality courses that could attract a large number students. Clearly, appropriate measures must be taken to eliminate a possibility of attracting more students by more lenient grading. • Good students working toward the M.S. degree can be very helpful in carrying out research projects supervised by their advisors, and are therefore highly demanded. As the students have a lot of freedom in seeking their individual advisors, and the best students normally choose those who offer the best education services (interesting topic, best facilities and best advising), a competition for good student takes place

Metrologists in industry has not declined over the years in sync with the availabilityof trained technicians. Contrarily, it has grown at an alarming rate, with needs for Metrologistsin calibration laboratories, pharmaceuticals, government labs, research and development,aerospace, state weights and measures, and a host of other positions. The gap between education/ training and demand has become a major focus throughout the metrology community. The shiftfrom military schooling to the private sector has been a rough road with few successes and manyfailures. The reasons vary but common ground seems to be shared between the expense of start-up and operating a metrology course and obtaining suitable attendance numbers.The general lack of knowing the term
