Saudi: Training for Women in Vehicle Maintenance Will Soon Be Expanded to All Regions
The Technical and Vocational Training Corporation (TVTC) plans to expand the vehicle maintenance training program for Saudi women in all regions of Saudi Arabia after the success of the first phase of the program in the southern Jazan region and the Northern Border Region. This was announced by Fahd Al-Otaibi, spokesman of the corporation.
The number of specializations of the corporation exceeded 580 specializations in all its programs offered in various training facilities. According to the questionnaires measuring the satisfaction of the female beneficiaries of the TVTC training programs in the Northern Borders region, the results showed that the proper selection of applied skills by the female trainees accounted for 89.5 per cent.
The TVTC, represented by its specialized committees, works on a permanent basis to develop and update training plans and programs with the participation of the competent authorities and their partners in the business sector to keep pace with the current and future needs of the labour market.
Al-Otaibi said that TVTC has developed and expanded the number of training programs through specialized academies and colleges that are operated in partnership with the business sector, most notably logistics services, entertainment, tourism, renewable energy, transportation, and mining, with the aim of keeping pace with the development being witnessed in the Kingdom and in a way achieving the goals of the Saudi Vision 2030.
The TVTC, in cooperation with its partners from the business sector, is currently carrying out precise and comprehensive studies related to providing specialized training programs in those sectors, most notably industry, retail and consumer goods.
