Mawaheb talent hub opens in abu dhabi

A total of 7,450 citizens have already benefitted from 680 upskilling courses and workshops, and 1,650 citizens were matched to roles in high-priority sectors, during the hub’s soft launch.
During his visit, Sheikh Khaled toured the state-of-the-art facilities and reviewed services provided through the talent ecosystem at the centre, which is managed by the Department of Government Support (DGS) and the Human Resources Authority (HRA).
Mawaheb has been strategically positioned as a cornerstone of the Abu Dhabi Government's commitment to the empowerment and advancement of its citizens by providing them with skills and professional experience, in preparation for life in the workplace.
Through programmes including employment counselling, skills assessment, upskilling and reskilling training, as well as job matching and job nomination support, Mawaheb actively equips Emiratis with specialised skills and professional experiences.
Ahmed Tamim Hisham Al Kuttab, Chairman of DGS, said, "The launch of Mawaheb aligns with our commitment to achieving the goals of Abu Dhabi’s broad development strategy for government services. Through the enhancement of specialised skills among UAE nationals, the facilitation of professional growth, and the provision of learning opportunities, we aim to refine expertise while fostering a culture of innovation.
"This has a positive impact on both the public and private sectors, contributing to the development of an exceptional pool of Emirati talent. These individuals are equipped with high-level skills and expertise and are well prepared to address the demands of the labour market.”
Mawaheb’s core objective is to develop a pipeline of qualified UAE national talent, equipping them with the skills required to adapt to the swift and continuous shifts in the labour market. This, in turn, supports talent to achieve their career aspirations.
