Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority organized the annual gathering of students on RTA’s local scholarships programme. The event was held in the context of RTA’s follow-up and guide affiliates, besides responding to their needs.
“This gathering with students on scholarships funded by RTA is held annually to review students’ academic progression and guide them towards realising their objectives. A graduate of the programme was hosted to reflect on his academic experience culminated in obtaining a Bachelor degree in Engineering. High achievers were honoured in a bid to motivate affiliates of the programme,” said Mansour Al Falasi, Director of Human Resources and Development at RTA’s Corporate Administrative Support Services Sector.
“Students held a Lego-style workshop demonstrating their ability to innovate and act in a team spirit. RTA’s scholarship programme aims to groom Emirati secondary school graduates and enable them to pursue their university study in majors compatible with RTA’s job nature. After completing their study programmes, graduates will be posted at RTA as part of our efforts to boost the Emiratisation drive in accordance with RTA’s strategic plan and the 7th principles of Dubai Governing Chart: A Land for Talent.
“The Scholarships Programme also covers secondary school graduates admitted to UAE universities. Under this programme, RTA extends full sponsorship of affiliated students along with a fixed monthly bursary to support their academic studies and motivate them to continue their academic qualification. RTA is making huge efforts to attract and qualify Emiratis in line with the directives of our leaders to empower citizens to contribute to the development drive underway,” continued Al Falasi.
