Roads & Transport Authority - News Details

Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), has started the summer internship programme (Ajyal) whereby the Human Resources and Development Department is undertaking a training programme for a group of Emirati secondary school and university students. This annual event stems from RTA’s keenness to instil the value of work and practical skills in Emirati youth. The programme duration runs from July 8 to August 8, 2019.

“Our summer training programme, Ajyal, aims at instilling in Emirati secondary schools and universities students the value of work. It also fills their free time with useful activities that develop their personalities and skills that will help them in future,” said Mansour Al Falasi, Director of RTA’s Human Resources and Development.

The programme started on July 8 and continues up to August 8, 2019. For the first time this year, we opened registration through ‘Dubai Careers’ website. The programme offers students access to diverse experiences by being trained in various RTA’s agencies and sectors. 

The programme inculcates in students the sense of responsibility and familiarizes them with work ethics. Moreover, it fits well with the vision of our government that considers youth the driving force of building the future of the nation. 

“The programme is open for Emirati students in secondary schools and universities, provided they are on a continuous education path. Interns will attend training courses and tour key projects recently accomplished by RTA. They will also be introduced to the use of public transport to familiarise them with RTA’s achievements and services; which will raise the profile of RTA in the community.” concluded Al Falasi.
