Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey

TOBB President M. Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu, who examined the excavation work at the construction site, told reporters that the construction is aimed to be completed in the last month of 2021, adding, “As the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey, we had the 81 schools in 81 provinces projects. In this context, our friends wanted a school for Ürgüp. We have laid the foundation for this school, and at the end of the year, hopefully we will open it together.”

Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony of the school to be built in the Evka neighborhood as part of TOBB's “81 Vocational High Schools in 81 Provinces” project, Nevşehir Governor İnci Sezer Becel noted that approximately 61,000 students were educated in the city, “Of these, 38,000 secondary and high school students. The fact that new schools will be attended by our students, which are the guarantee of our future, is one of the most important investments we can make as a country. The share allocated to education in the activities carried out by TOBB is an unimpressed one. We hope the school will bring many benefits to Ürgüp.”

Ambassador Nikolaus Meyer-Landrut, head of the European Union (EU) Delegation to Turkey, who participated in the programmed, said in his speech that the highest level of investment is the work done in the field of education and that they appreciate TOBB's practices in this field.

The ceremony ended with the presentation of gifts to the participants.
