The Cognitive Abilities Test

Al Alfi Foundation - AAF Being the first NGO in
Egypt and the Middle East to act as an official test
administrator for the Cognitive Ability Test-CAT4.
The test is offered to students who show excel-
lence in mathematics and/or science at their cur-
rent grades. In addition we offer other IQ & Cog-
nitive tests.
Al Alfi Foundation Exanimated more than 1000
students, in 2014 54 students were examined and
7 were Identified as Gifted Students.
AAF were able to translate the CAT4 exam Guide
Book into Arabic language and it has been ap-
proved by GL Assessment - UK to be used for
Experimental school students. A trial exam took
place on one student from an Experimental School
Eslam Ahmed Future Language School - Grade
4 Scored 130 which is dedicated as highest
achievement.
CAT4 Exams are used as a first step to identify
gifted students to enroll them in the International

2013 among International, National and Exper-
imental schools to select 4 gifted and talented
students to earn a full scholarship in Partnership
with The British International School, Cairo (BISC)
& Hayah International Academy
In 2014, AAF tested 30 54 students recommended
from the 9 experimental schools by the CAT4 exam
as a first step were 4 students only succeeded
and took the second exam which is English and

I. Experimental and National Schools Summer Camp: June 2014

AAF held 4 sessions from June 1st June 26th,
2014, for grades 4, 5 and 6 as well as grades 7,
8 and 9, for a total of 124 students. The summer
program was based on practical work and cre-
ative learning activities that encourage
students natural curiosity and helps develop their
problem solving and critical thinking skills. A rep-
resentative from the Ministry of Education visited
our office to see the summer program offered and
how the students are responding to it.

The Summer Camp Activities

1. Robotics
2. Cars
3. Rockets
4. Electronics
5. Try Engineering Series (more than 100 Engineering projects) : Building Wind Mills, Towers and
Bridges, Ferry wheels, measuring win and more.

 2. Cars

Creative Learning Activities educate, excite, engage and
entertain young people and will ignite kids natural curi-
osity, challenging them to create, problem solve and ap-
ply their ideas to invent things they can keep and share
with others. To achieve this unique blend of education,
invention, and entrepreneurship, the program! Has ad-
opted the learning model used by Thomas Edison and
thousands of other inventors and applied it to learning for
kids. Designed to teach kids about science, math, inven-
tion, entrepreneurship, innovation and creativity through
engagement with adult-led hands-on projects, Kids In-
vention Projects are based on sound scientific principles.

3. Rockets Engineering

Students will learn about rocketry engineering history and concepts then build their own water rocket and try it
practically.

4. Electronics

Students will learn about the basic of electronics and build their own power supply, radio and other electronics projects.

12 | Al Alfi Foundation
5. TryEngineering
Get introduced to the world of Engineers through Try En-
gineering show. During the show teams from the audi-
ence (Students and Families) will compete together and
work as a team of Engineers by putting the designs and
meeting the specifications of products and devices. For
instance they learn about how for example Ferries wheel
or a windmill work and build them using macaroni, tea
bags and other materials used at home. More than 100
projects available. Topics will be: Bridges, Towers, Wind
Mills, Ferries wheels and measuring wind.

upgrade the education and training of Egyptian urol-
ogists, mainly through implementing and organizing
continuous medical education and continuous pro-
fessional development. These two activities (CME
and CPD) are transformed into CME Credits which
are continuously calculated and registered for par-
ticipants in accredited events.
Al Alfi Foundation participated in the initial meet-

 Celebrating 25 Years of Contribution in Human Resource
Development and Education
Al Alfi Foundation for Human and Social Develop-
ment celebrated its 25th anniversary of its found-
ing on the 3rd of December 2014, at the Four Sea-
sons Hotel under the auspices of Engineer Ibrahim
Mahlab, Egypt Prime Minister, and in the presence
of a number of Ministers, Businessmens, AAF Board
Members and more than 300 attendees in addi-
tion to Al Alfi Foundation Fellows.
Through his speech, Mr. Moataz Al Alfi, Chairman of
the Board, Al Alfi Foundation, expressed his happi-
ness for the presence of the ministers and notable
businessmen, professors and teachers who were for
him, the best colleagues, who struggled with perse-
verance throughout the 25 years of the institution,
he described students as the flame of hope.
He added: Today we celebrate the path of 25 years
of participating in the areas of human and education
development, 25 years we have learned that Egypt
is a rich country, contrary to what is said, of course,
Egypts wealth is not oil wealth and not in cash, but
the precious mankind development, if it is well con-
tributed, could enrich us all, 25-years we believed in
the need to achieve tangible results with the goal of
Egypts human development, so as not to get car-
ried away on our way no matter what difficulties we
faced, 25 years we walk them through the difficult
and arduous, and contrary to what some think is
not furnished with flowers, in this long journey and
modest we passed through tough moments where
vision was blurry.
He continued: After 25 years during which more
than 110,000 students participated and enrolled
in the Foundations programs, and after that, more
than 500 students, on scholarships, enrolled in
Egyptian and international universities, today and
after the participation of dozens of schools in the
Foundations programs, I tell them, certainly the ex-
perience has shown that a small drop of water can
flower sprout with insisting and perseverance, and
that the past 25 years have taught us all, that we fail
only when we stop trying.
Success stories were mentioned, how the organiza-
tion has contributed to their support in the scientific
and practical careers.
The most prominent of the success stories of the
Egyptian world, is a young man who did not exceed
23-years-old, he was able to get his doctoral degree
in nanotechnology. Mustafa Osman graduated in the
International Baccalaureate in Cairo, when he was
under sixteen years of age, a specialist in electronics
science and nanotechnology, with the sponsorship
of Al Alfi Foundation he was able to get a support
to travel to Britain, attended the British University in
London to study nanotechnology and master in new
patent completion for the same area.
