Shell Development Oman continues to host its ‘Shell Professional Courses’ programme as part of its ‘Training for Development’ social investment initiative.

Muna Al Shukaili, GM – External Relations and Social Investment Lead at Shell Development Oman said, “At Shell, we aim to implement extensive social investment programmes that contribute to the sustainable development of the Sultanate. Part of our commitment to Oman’s social development, is working to nurture young professionals and help them secure jobs to help enhance their employment and self-employment potentials.” She added, “Our professional courses are carefully devised in-line with the required skills needed in today’s workplaces and based on the feedback from the attendees in previous years. Courses were conducted in various regions including Muscat, Salalah, Nizwa, Sur, Al Buraimi and Sohar. We received applications from the public sector, the private sector, and NGOs from across the Sultanate, with a total of 213 attendees to date.”
Describing her experience in the ‘Problem-Solving course’, Samiya Al Ghafri, Communication specialist at the Public Authority for Electricity and Water (Diam) said, “Shell Professional Courses provided me with the opportunity to learn new creative and critical thinking techniques and various problem-solving methods.
