Just came back from an intensive weekend (7-8 Jan) in Oman with my core IOU (Islamic Online University) team and the stage has now been set for launching the Bachelors in Islamic studies (BAIS) in March 2010. Registration will begin from the 15th of January, Allah willing. Al-hamdulillaah, an excellent promo was completed by one of our volunteers and the process of hiring full-time staff and teachers for supervising the different courses has begun.
