AtharCast is one of Abjad Initiative for Education programs. It is a light chat with a group of successful young professionals. We talk to them about their experiences in the stages: before, during, and after the university. We choose them to help all students and talk to us about the experiences and challenges they went through. The changes and difficulties they faced, and how they managed to get over it.
