Program to help private sector boost Saudization

RIYADH: Saudi Minister of Human Resources and Social Development Ahmed Al-Rajhi has inaugurated the mrn.sa platform to document flexible work contracts between employees and employers.
Al-Rajhi said that the flexible work program would contribute to boosting the Kingdom’s economy — at the level of enterprises and individuals — to achieve the objectives of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 by increasing the number of local cadres integrated into the job market.
He said that the initiative sought to empower male and female citizens, and to help the private sector boost Saudization.
The program aims to create new types of jobs for people seeking employment, and increase their chances of getting flexible jobs to help them integrate into the job market and enhance their skills and expertise to enable them to later become full-time employees.
The program targets male and female citizens looking for work, in addition to workers who wish to increase their income on a regular basis.

RCU opens registration for hospitality training programs

  • Programs to develop Saudis’ skills, refine competencies

RIYADH: The Royal Commission for AlUla has opened registration for training programs in January offered by its Elaa Academy.

Its programs aim to develop skills and refine competencies of Saudis working in the tourism, hospitality and events sectors, the Saudi Press Agency reported.

The training programs, which begin on Jan. 18, include “Introduction to Facilities Management.” This course teaches essential hospitality skills including maintenance, health and safety, hygiene standards and asset management.

Another program, “Tourist Guidance and Cultural Interpretation,” focuses on teaching communication skills, group management and presentation techniques for historic and cultural information.

The “AlUla Content” program is also included, which provides a comprehensive look at the cultural, historic and natural heritage of the governorate, highlighting historic sites and narratives while building a basic knowledge of AlUla’s identity and cultural components.

The “Effective Planning in Event Management” program addresses logistics, stakeholder coordination and risk management to help ensure the success of events.

Elaa Academy is running the “Introduction to Hotel Management” program this month, which helps employees focus on key departments, operations, and service standards, enhancing a basic understanding of hospitality management.

The launch of these programs aligns with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030 to empower national talent and enhance AlUla’s position as a leading global destination for tourism and culture.

The cost of the various courses ranges from SR250 ($66) to SR500, and they are being held at the AlUla Languages Institute.

Students will receive an accredited certificate from the RCU after completing any of the courses.

The RCU has invited all interested parties to register for the training opportunities through Elaa’s official website at https://elaa.rcu.gov.sa/elaaregistrati.
