Batelco Summer Training Programme Success

Mobilk - Batelco, as part of its great commitment to education and young people, held its annual Summer Training Programme, during July and August. The training programme provided university students with the opportunity to gain valuable work experience as part of their degree or diploma. 

The participating students, who were placed in different departments throughout Batelco had the chance to experience a professional working environment and gain an insight into how business operates based on market demands. 

Batelco General Manager Human Resources and Corporate Services Suhaila Alnowakhda said that Batelco is always keen to train students on the various skills that will increase their employment opportunities in the future.

“The skills covered included communication, team work, preparation of reports and timeliness of completion of tasks among others. Academic achievement alone is insufficient, it requires the addition of practical experience.”

“At Batelco we strongly believe in developing local talent and our summer training programme aims to prepare students for their professional careers by providing such practical training in a real-life environment to enhance their educational achievements,” added Mrs. Alnowakhda.
