During a meeting at Al Husseiniya Palace with
graduates of Jaguar Land Rover Apprentice Academy’s first class, Crown Prince
Al Hussein stressed the important role of the private sector in vocational and
technical education to enable youth to meet labor market needs.
The 12 graduates—eight from Al-Hussein
Technical University (HTU) and four from the National Service Program
implemented by the Ministry of Labor—spoke to HRH about their experiences.
The academy’s
training program provides three options for its graduates, namely completing
their education by obtaining an undergraduate degree at HTU, joining a
three-month course that enables them to work at other car manufacturing
companies, or entering the labor market directly.
Founded by Mahmoudia Motors, a Jaguar and Land
Rover dealer in Jordan, the academy offers free training programs in automotive
technology as part of its corporate social responsibility. Those interested can
apply through HTU.
