The partnership aims to offer training to young Saudis and create jobs in the Kingdom’s growing rail Industry
The Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU) and Saudi Railway Polytechnic (SRP) have inked a deal to boost the capabilities of young Saudis looking to launch a career in AlUla and the Kingdom’s growing rail sector.
The partnership aims to strengthen the long-term and sustainable development of young Saudi talent. The first stage of the agreement is planned to provide vocational training programme in railway maintenance and operation, which will build sector-specific subjects such as rolling stock and infrastructure through hands-on training, said a statement.
The regeneration of AlUla is powering the development of new mobility options across the county, including new rail and tram services such as the Experiential Tram that will link key heritage, tourist, and residential sites once complete.
Building the skills, knowledge, and capabilities of AlUla’s workforce is critical to achieving RCU’s transformational and development goals, as well as the long-term ambitions of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 plan, said a statement.
Mohammed Alshkrah, the Human Capability Development VP at the Royal Commission for AlUla said: “The ongoing regeneration of AlUla supports the national development goals of Vision 2030 by young men and women with the knowledge and know-how needed to forge successful careers in exciting and diverse sectors, such as the growing railway sector in AlUla and the Kingdom.”
The Royal Commission for AlUla is committed to national capability development goals as it continues to be a driving force behind strategies that are nurturing and evolving a skilled and resilient workforce in diverse industries and powering growth in AlUla and KSA-wide. |
