New Part-Time Bootcamps and Apprenticeship Programs in Bahrain Open New Opportunities

General Assembly
August 5, 2024

Our new programs in Bahrain create even more new opportunities for Bahraini learners of all kinds and allow them to take the next step up in their unique career journeys.

Whether looking for a new career, to advance in their current career, or just getting started in their career, we’re here to help make it real and help Bahrainis from all walks of life learn in-demand skills to move them forward.

Our Partnership in Bahrain with Tamkeen

Bahrain’s Labour Fund (Tamkeen) was established in 2006 and tasked with the responsibility of empowering Bahrainis to become employees of choice and enabling the private sector to become the key engine of economic growth, to serve the purpose of achieving sustainable economic development in Bahrain.

Tamkeen brings partners from the private sector together with other key government players within the Team Bahrain ecosystem to drive the vision for the Kingdom forward. We’re honored to be one of those partners and have enjoyed a positive—and impactful—partnership to date.

Also important to note—one of the biggest benefits of this partnership is that anyone 18 years and older who’s a Bahraini citizen is eligible for tuition fee support for any of our courses through GA and Tamkeen. 

Our Existing Programs and Successful Outcomes

Our existing programs—tech bootcamps in software engineering, data, and UX design—have had a high positive outcome rate. To date, Bahraini talent have reported more than an 80% positive outcome rate for graduates within six months since graduating, which includes job opportunities, freelance work, promotions, and starting a business.

Our outcomes are due in large part to our strategic partnerships with well-known organizations, including more than 80 Bahraini hiring partners. These positive outcomes demonstrate our ability to help Bahrainis—even those with no tech background—overcome challenges and secure or advance employment within the tech industry.

Introducing Our New Part-Time Bootcamps and Apprenticeship Programs

Along with our proven full-time tech courses in software engineering, data analytics, data science, and UX design, we’re excited to launch new part-time bootcamp programs in software engineering and data analytics.
