Zain Showcases Its Training Opportunities for Youth at the Annual Injaz Exhibition
Zain Kuwait participated in the latest edition of the Field Training Opportunities Exhibition, organized by the Kuwait Achievers Association. The company showcased to university students and recent graduates the opportunities to gain practical experience within the company, and provided insights into the nature of work in the telecommunications and technology sectors.
Zain took part in the exhibition’s opening ceremony, attended by Adel Al-Shamali, Vice Chairman of the Association’s Board of Directors; Liya Hilal Al-Mutairi, the Association’s Executive Director; Faisal Al-Duwaisan, Head of Community Partnerships and Youth Empowerment Team at Zain Kuwait; along with a group of partner representatives and students.
The Zain pavilion witnessed active engagement from students eager to embark on early professional experiences. They learned about the training opportunities offered by the company and the skills they can develop through direct interaction with employees in a work environment, including communication, customer service, public relations, teamwork, and project management responsibility.
Since its launch in 2008, the FUN program has provided thousands of students with opportunities to develop their personal and professional skills, understand labor market requirements, and build practical experience that supports their readiness for future careers. Many outstanding participants in the program have since joined Zain as full-time employees.
Under the umbrella of the Zain Youth Network FUN program, a wide range of initiatives and year-round programs are implemented. These include field training opportunities, a summer program that offers young people direct practical experience within Zain branches, workshops and training sessions to develop personal and professional skills, as well as the FUN Talks initiative, which brings students together with a select group of entrepreneurs and individuals with inspiring experiences to exchange knowledge and gain close insights into the world of entrepreneurship. This enhances their readiness for the labor market and supports their ambitions and future career paths.
Zain’s annual participation in the exhibition is an extension of its strategic partnership with the Kuwait Achievers Association, which has spanned more than two decades. Through this collaboration, both parties have worked together to deliver a wide range of educational and training programs that invest in youth capabilities, encourage them to explore their ambitions, and transform their ideas into viable projects.
Zain continues to support initiatives that bridge the gap between students and the real work environment, equipping them with the necessary tools to keep pace with the rapid changes in the labor market. This commitment stems from the company’s belief in the importance of building a generation equipped with future-ready skills, which actively contributes to enhancing innovation, entrepreneurship, and supporting the national economy.
