ADGM Academy, in collaboration with the Mawaheb Talent Hub, has announced an expansion of their strategic partnership to address the evolving demands of the UAE labor market. This initiative, supported
by the Department of Government Enablement in Abu Dhabi, aims to introduce new industry-aligned programs in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. These programs are designed to equip Emiratis with skills in high-demand sectors such as software development, technology infrastructure, and strategic business intelligence. The partnership, which has been successful since 2022, has already created over 1,000 specialized jobs in critical industries. The expanded collaboration aims to secure 620 job placements in 2026, focusing on sustainable and impactful careers.
Why It's Important?
This development is significant as it aligns with the UAE's vision for a knowledge-based economy. By focusing on high-demand sectors, the partnership aims to enhance the employability of Emiratis, thereby contributing to the country's economic diversification goals. The initiative not only addresses immediate labor market needs but also ensures long-term career sustainability for UAE nationals. This strategic move is expected to have a positive impact on the regional labor market, particularly in Abu Dhabi, by providing a skilled workforce that meets the emerging economic and technological needs.
What's Next?
The partnership will continue to focus on expanding its programs and securing job placements across diversified sectors. As the UAE progresses towards its economic goals, the collaboration between ADGM Academy and Mawaheb Talent Hub is expected to set a benchmark for strategic partnerships in human capital development. The initiative will likely attract more participants and stakeholders interested in contributing to the UAE's labor market transformation.
