The Labour Fund Tamkeen has announced the resumption of its individual development programmes through a comprehensive updated platform on its website.

It is in line with the implementation of the directives of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister.

Job seekers, employees and students will benefit from the programmes.

Likewise, the initiatives aim to help Bahraini business owners.

It is scheduled to start receiving applications from February 25, directly through the electronic portal of Tamkeen, after activating the applicant’s private account or logging in to the account if it is activated.

The launch of the People Development Platform comes in its new form to emphasise the importance of meeting the requirements of the next stage in the labour market, especially with the developments in the market realities due to the coronavirus pandemic, the continuous change of the work environment, and its growing need for technological applications.

Tamkeen CEO Dr Ibrahim Muhammad Janahi said that the personnel training platform will include the usual programmes in accredited professional certificates and training courses for employability skills.

 It will also include youth training programmes, on-the-job training, and training to obtain the required licenses.

It will also support vocational training initiatives with several partner employers in providing training, to enhance the capabilities of young people and refine their skills to allow them to acquire the professional skills required for employment in various developmental and economic sectors.
