Tamkeen Holds Orientation Session with Students of Higher Education Institutions

Tamkeen, in partnership with the Higher Education Council, recently organised an orientation session with different students of Bahrain’s higher education institutions. The session, in line with Tamkeen’s ongoing efforts to support Bahrainis throughout all stages of development and to enhance their skills development, was held at the Westin Hotel and saw the participation of 30 student council representatives from 11 universities and educational institutions

The forum highlighted Tamkeen’s diverse range of support initiatives and programmes to the various student council attendees and raised awareness about the potential benefit of these programmes to participants. The session also included a presentation that showed the attendees how to use Tamkeen’s online portal to select the optimal support programmes that matches their development goals.

Commenting on the importance of the session, Tamkeen’s Chief Executive, Dr. Ebrahim Janahi said: “Tamkeen has always placed an emphasis on professionally developing the youth segment and equipping them with the knowledge, skills training and opportunities to thrive when taking their initial steps into their professional careers. Developing the skills of Bahrain’s youth as they eventually become part of the country’s workforce is an integral investment to ensure further growth and sustainability for Bahrain’s economy..”
