The World Halal Institute—affiliated with the Research and Information Center of the Islamic Chamber—organized a series of specialized training courses aimed at enhancing the expertise of food industry professionals and developing Halal quality assurance management systems. Participants included Halal representatives, quality control managers, technical officers from manufacturing companies, and auditors collaborating with the Institute.

These online training courses were designed to familiarize member companies with the requirements for establishing and implementing a Halal quality assurance management system, to elevate the specialized knowledge of operational personnel, and to standardize procedures for the issuance and renewal of Halal certificates.

A specialized course focusing on weighing and packaging—in accordance with Halal standards—was held for food manufacturing companies on November 7, 2026 (Aban 17, 1405).

The curriculum covered topics such as religious rulings (Sharia requirements) regarding the weighing and packaging of food products, quality control checkpoints during these processes, container labeling, and the ritual purification (*tathir*) of packaging tools and equipment.

By conducting these specialized courses, the World Halal Institute has taken another step toward advancing the technical knowledge of food manufacturers, strengthening the infrastructure of Halal quality assurance systems, and fostering synergy among Halal-certified production units. This initiative will play a significant role in enhancing the credibility of Iranian products in international markets, particularly within the markets of Islamic nations.
