The MoU was signed by His Excellency Abdulla Ali Bin Zayed Al Falasi, Director General of DGHR Department and Deputy Chairman of EHRDC, and Fahad Al Hassawi, Chief Executive Officer of du, in the presence of senior officials and experts from both sides. In line with the UAEs vision for a sustainable and innovation-driven digital economy, the MoU seeks to develop a pipeline of highly qualified Emirati talents through specialised training programmes and strategic employment opportunities in advanced technology and telecommunication sectors.

Through this MoU, we aim to empower our youth, men and women alike, to acquire the requisite expertise to enhance their capabilities and increase their contributions to the country's economy. The telecommunications and ICT sector is a major pillar of the new economy, and we are optimistic that our partnership with du will open new avenues for Emirati professionals to thrive in this vital sector and help achieve Emiratisation gaols in line with national priorities."
