Petrofac Saudi Arabia and the Asharqia Chamber of Commerce Training Centre in Dammam held a graduation ceremony on 31 March for 80 young Saudi trainees who have successfully completed the 2011-2012 training programme in human resources management fundamentals.

Under Petrofac's sponsorship the Chamber delivered the course to students, most of whom were high school graduates.  

Graduating student, and recipient of the award for superior trainee, Fouad Al Madloh, described the training as "very helpful because I will really add value to my employer's company and help my colleagues."  Nouf Abdulkarim Abdulaziz Alfayadh received the award in the women's group.  Both were presented with i-Pads courtesy of Petrofac Saudi Arabia.

Senior Vice President and general manager for Petrofac's Saudi Arabia operations, Imad Shanan, noted "we are proud to sponsor this future generation of leaders and pleased to partner again with the Asharqia Chamber.  In Saudi Arabia we are strongly committed to our corporate social responsibility agenda, and this programme supports our activities in that respect."
