Case study example

In 2020, OGM was contracted to deliver training for NSH Bahraini employees under the Bahrain Government, “Bapco Modernisation Program” (BMP) comprising 26 batches of 25 employees (650 intake).  The program delivered 400 plus successful program graduates, who were then employed by NSH across a range of high demand skills including welding, pipe fitting, scaffolding, instrumentation, electrical assistants and safety officers

The program invited unemployed Bahraini nationals referred from Ministry of Labour to up-skill candidates with skills that would ensure employment to benefit both trainees and their families while positively contributing to goals of the Bahraini Government to train, support, and drive employment of Bahraini nationals.

 

Over a three-year period, inclusive of COVID impacts, the BMP program delivered the leading training and employment program for Bahraini nationals within the Kingdom. A wonderful program and result for all parties involved.
