RIYADH — The Human Resources Development Fund (HADAF) has offered 637 training opportunities for young Saudi women jobseekers at private firms all over the Kingdom.

This will be under the Tamheer on-the-job training program for Saudi university graduates.

The three to six months training program will help them gain experience and skills to prepare them for full-time employment.

HADAF will support the program with provision of a monthly stipend of SR3,000 and an insurance package against risks at workplace.

HADAF urged private sector employers to join Tamheer program through its link (www.taqat.sa/tamheer) by providing training to Saudis without any financial or contractual obligations to the Fund.

This program enhances the image of business owners as well as their key role in boosting the Kingdom’s economy.

It also allows business owners to take advantage of platforms to reach qualified Saudis who can be recruited after the training program.
