Joramco Academy welcomes TVSDC President Dr. Raghda Al-Faouri for an official visit
Last year, the TVSDC signed a partnership agreement with Joramco Academy to sponsor the tuition of select promising students for the four-year program in Aircraft Maintenance for Technicians, after which the graduates of the program are guaranteed employment at the company. This agreement highlighted the strategic goals of the TVSDC in developing the skills of talented youth and upskilling them for highly demanded roles through vocational and technical education.
During the visit, the delegation met with representatives from Joramco and Joramco Academy as well as the sponsored students. These students shared their personal experiences at the academy, highlighting the tangible impact of the partnership. Dr. Raghda reviewed the academic performance of these students, ensuring their smooth progress and evaluating the positive outcomes of this collaboration.
In addition, the visit included a tour of the Joramco Academy premises, as well as the facilities of Joramco. This partnership serves as a model for how strategic alliances can equip Jordanian youth with the skills needed to thrive in high-demand, global industries like aviation.
Commenting on the visit, Fraser Currie, Chief Executive Officer at Joramco, said, 'At Joramco Academy, we are firm believers in the value of education that is aligned with industry and its needs in shaping successful career paths.

This strategic appointment marks a significant step in the airline's transformation journey and underscores its commitment to building a strong pipeline of Omani leaders in the aviation sector. Al Alawi joins Oman Air from Oman Airports Management Company, where he served as Acting Chief Executive Officer and played a pivotal role in launching the airport's own transformation programme.

He has demonstrated exceptional leadership in his role at Oman Airports Management Company and we are confident that he will bring the same vision and drive to the national airline.

His appointment strengthens our leadership team at a critical time in our growth journey. I look forward to working closely with him as we proceed on our transformation agenda and deliver long-term sustainable value for the country.'

In 2024, Al Alawi was appointed to lead the transformation of Oman Airports Management Company, where, during a brief but impactful tenure, the company delivered record financial performance, including the highest EBITDA since its establishment, as well as a comprehensive restructuring programme to enhance efficiency and capacity. As Deputy CEO of Oman Air, he will play a key role in driving the day-to-day activities of the transformation, working directly with the CEO and senior leadership to facilitate change and enable the delivery of performance targets which ensure the airline's long-term commercial viability, financial sustainability, and operational excellence. -TradeArabia News Service Copyright 2024 Al Hilal Publishing and Marketing Group Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc.

What to know about Emiratisation
For decades, most Emiratis have worked in government roles. But now, thousands are joining private companies as part of a nationwide plan to balance the workforce. Early iterations of Emiratisation began in the 1990s, with programmes formalised in the early 2000s. About three years ago, the UAE gradually implemented quotas for hiring Emiratis and gave private-sector companies deadlines to meet them. Now, those deadlines continue to come up. In this episode of Business Extra, host Salim hears from our own Ali Al Shouk and Ben Crompton of Crompton Partners on Emiratisation, how it's affecting companies, and what it means for the future of work in the UAE.
