The first cohort of the Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB) GP15 Graduate Development Programme has successfully concluded, with all 15 participants transitioning into their professional career paths.
This reflects the high calibre of training and the practical skills and experience they acquired, which enhanced their ability to integrate into the workplace with competence and confidence.
On the occasion, Fatema Mohamed Ali, director of human resources at CBB and programme director, affirmed that the results achieved by the programme reflect the advanced calibre of national talent.
She further emphasised the importance of developing specialised programmes that prepare young professionals and enable them to contribute effectively to Bahrain’s development journey from the early stages of their careers.
Sharing his experience, Yousif Khalid Turk, a participant, expressed his appreciation for the experience offered by the programme, highlighting the valuable practical opportunities it provided.
He added that such opportunities enabled participants to develop their skills and enhance their professional readiness through active engagement in a dynamic work environment and involvement in project-based assignments.
The GP15 Graduate Development Programme is part of CBB’s ongoing commitment to further invest in the development of national talent.
It offers a comprehensive six‑month training experience that combines practical work across various CBB directorates, direct engagement with financial sector leaders and specialised training sessions delivered by the Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance (BIBF), collectively equipping participants with advanced technical expertise and strengthening their professional readiness.
Building on the success of the first cohort, the CBB will announce applications for the second cohort of the GP15 Graduate Development Programme in the coming period, as part of its ongoing efforts to develop national talent and enhance its competitiveness in the financial sector.
