950 Interns participated in three training sessions
The National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) and Loyac concluded the Training Program ‘Bridge.’ More than 950 interns participated in this program that consisted of three training sessions. ‘Bridge’ Training Program aims at training Loyac interns on best customer service practices. NBK offered training material and trainers during the program that was launched last May. NBK sponsored this program as part of its commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility as well as towards supporting students, youths and selfbuilding initiatives in Kuwait.
Each session of the program featured a mixture of theoretical and practical training dedicated to provide the interns with invaluable knowledge on a variety of subjects related to service quality and customer service, in addition to helping them to have greater exposure to different work procedures.
Commenting on this occasion, Manal Al-Mattar, NBK Assistant General Manager, Public Relations said “We are proud of the outcome of this program and the great number of interns who participated. NBK sponsorship to this program goes with our continuous support to Loyac’s activities and events.”
“NBK always strives to empower Kuwaiti youth to realize their potentials, providing career and training opportunities. Also, NBK develops the professional skills of young Kuwaitis as part of its strategy to develop national human resources,” Mattar added.
Fetouh Aldalaly, Loyac Board member expressed her gratitude to NBK for their continued support and involved in LOYAC’s programs that aim to provide the youth with unique opportunities such as the Internship program which offers the Bridge workshop as a prerequisite, enhancing the interns’ skills, and preparing them for bright and prosperous careers.
Aldalaly stressed the importance of development programs in shaping the youth and preparing them for the job market and even more so is the importance of employers supporting such programs. “We thank NBK for allowing our youth to experience such unique opportunities, and we look forward expanding such opportunities through our ongoing partnership with NBK,” Aldalaly added.
NBK continues to promote a range of philanthropic missions and social welfare programs as part of its corporate social responsibility to assert its leadership in supporting Kuwait’s social development standing as a model in serving all aspects of the community.
LOYAC is a nonprofit organization that runs several programs for the youth to develop their professional skills, enhance their personal growth and help them find their sense of purpose by extending themselves to others.
