Omnia Education Partnerships Ltd. (OEP) and EJADAH Management Consultancy have signed a memorandum of understanding on jointly launching entrepreneurship training programs localized for the Saudi Arabian market.
The entrepreneurship training programs provide the participants with the skills and competence to build a career as an entrepreneur. Supporting entrepreneurship creates new business opportunities thus enhancing economic growth, which is in line with the Saudi 2030 Vision.
The importance of small and medium sized companies to the national economy has long been known in Finland. SMEs create 99 % of new jobs and make 55 % of the total revenue of Finland. Excellent entrepreneurship and business skills lay the foundation for growth businesses.
The partnership brings tried and tested training programs leading to qualifications licensed by the Finnish Ministry of Education to the Saudi market. The part-time 10-month entrepreneurship program is based on a series of workshops and online collaboration, enhancing digital skills while developing the business concept. The combination of business skills development and mentoring offers tangible, hands-on support to startups and SME owners.
