  Last year a number of BBC members visited the innovation park developed by ACTVET and EmiratesSkills.

  Since then the park has been further developed and we are planning another visit to the site for interested companies.

  The park is a vocational training space where (international) companies can provide on the job training sessions for ACTVET’s vocational students. ACTVET would like to reach out to companies to discuss possible manners of cooperation in the provision of vocational training.

  The park is in Abu Dhabi, close to Mussafah and is easily reachable.

  We think it is a nice link to current Emiratization trends, and that it can provide a way to include more (young) Emiratis in your workforce.

  ACTVET is organizing an on-site information session for the interested companies on the 6^th of October 2022.
  From 10:00 to 12:00 we will visit the innovation park where ACTVET will share more information on their vocational programs and show the site.

  They are also interested in hearing from the companies’ side what they could offer or what they would like to do in such a space. It is the first time such a project is being developed, so they are also open to listening to your ideas for it.

  ACTVET has another location with an oil & gas simulator and offers a tour from 13:00 to 14:00 for those interested. This location is about 20 minutes away from the innovation park.
