PR Arabia will train students of the Faculty of Media and Public Relations at King Abdul Aziz University in Jeddah to enable them to gain practical experience and to assist them in graduation projects.
The training will focus on the principles of dealing with media, managing conferences and seminars as well as developing media strategies and public relations on sound scientific bases. The students will be given tips on keeping pace with the digital and social media.
Hassan bin Abdulrahman Al-Shehri, general supervisor of the implementation of the initiative, said this step is part of the agency’s strategy to attract talented Saudi graduates.
He said the move is in line with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030 to Saudize the basic jobs needed by both the private and public sectors.
A large number of students who benefited from this initiative are a source of inspiration for Saudi youth, many of whom seek to contribute to this qualitative development of modern public relations concept and implement it in their work after graduation.

The event featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony to officially open the specially designed Founding Day gateway.
Following the inauguration, guests toured several dedicated zones and exhibitions highlighting national products. The tour commenced at the grocery and “Made in Saudi” consumer goods sections, showcasing the diversity and quality of local brands.
