About this Programme

Across the GCC, nations are striving to accelerate the development of nationals in order to support their economic and social development. HR is both an enabler of these objectives and is part of the process. The function must play its part in delivering the national strategies and must accelerate the development of its own local talent to enhance the capability for the future.
