Dubai-based Abdulla Al Ghurair Foundation (AGF), Skyrize Partners, and Bayt.com have joined forces to launch the fifth cohort of the Nomu Al Ghurair – Women programme in a new push to bolster Emiratisation efforts and empower young Emirati women.

The programme provides female Emirati students and fresh graduates with essential skills for career development through a five-week Management Training Programme.

"Our partnership with Bayt.com and Skyrize Partners is a strategic step towards building a robust and capable workforce of Emirati women," said Mona Ghander, Vice President of Partnerships and Programs at AGF.

"We are dedicated to offering practical training that empowers these women individually and also supports the broader economic growth of the UAE."

The collaboration kicked off with a career readiness workshop in Al Ain, marking the beginning of the fifth cohort of the programme. The workshop, led by Yasmin Hamdan, Senior Career Consultant at Bayt.com, provided participants with vital skills to navigate the competitive job market successfully.

Sarah Sefiane, General Manager at Skyrize Partners, said: “Nomu Al Ghurair – Women, launched by the Abdulla Al Ghurair Foundation (AGF) in partnership with Skyrize Partners, is dedicated to empowering young Emirati women through practical, career-focused training.

“We are thrilled to have Bayt.com, the Middle East’s leading job site, as our strategic partner in this crucial endeavour to equip Emirati women with the tools they need to succeed in their careers and contribute to the UAE's thriving knowledge-based economy.”
