Aiming to train and equip students with personal and professional skills to meet the needs of the job market…

Bahrain Islamic Bank (BisB), the leading bank in providing Shari’a compliant digital banking solutions in the Kingdom of Bahrain, announced its partnership with the University of Bahrain’s Career Guidance Division. Through this collaboration, BisB will conduct a series of interviews with students from the College of Business Administration and select a number of distinguished candidates to provide them with a training opportunity at the Bank as part of an ongoing program.

This initiative aims to create learning opportunities for the students for six months in different departments, as well as equip them with key personal and professional skills that align with the requirements of the current job market. Students will be able to develop their self-confidence and professionalism, all while enriching their overall knowledge and experience in the Islamic banking industry.

Commenting on the occasion, Afnan Saleh, Chief Human Resources Officer at BisB, said, “We are very proud to be partnering with University of Bahrain, an academic pillar in the Kingdom and an institution that has contributed to graduating generations of leaders for decades. This partnership is in line with our Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) initiatives and comes under our CSR platform, Jood, which focuses on innovation through education, equipping the distinguished graduates with the requisite knowledge, mindset and essential skills needed to join the workforce. We are eager to expand this initiative across all local universities and educational institutions in the near future.”
