Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has accomplished a theoretical and practical training of Emirati fresh graduate engineers on the best practices of bus maintenance.
“Training of Emirati engineers is aligned with Dubai Government’s focus on Emiratisation encapsulated in the ‘Message of the New Season’ and the drive to qualify and empower nationals to take up various jobs. The training aimed to uplift their technical and engineering abilities in bus maintenance practices such that they would be in better shape to support RTA’s objectives,” said Abdullah Al Maazami, Director of Maintenance and Services at RTA’s Public Transport Agency.
The training programme, which had been coordinated with RTA’s Human Resources and Development Department, included four specialist workshops held over four weeks delivered by RTA’s bus maintenance specialists in coordination with leading bus manufacturers. Trainees were acquainted with the latest maintenance techniques of various types of buses in use, as they are a key component of public transport systems operated by RTA.
“The programme is also in line with the seventh principle of Dubai Governing Principles (Land of Talents) naming Dubai as a rich environment for intellects, ideas and competent personnel who can contribute to boosting the community development drive,” concluded Al Maazami.
