6/17/25, 8:36 AM DGHR collaborates with Dubai AI Campus to accelerate AI-driven workforce development
His Excellency Essa Kazim, Governor of Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), said:

“The development of a future-ready workforce is fundamental to Dubai's ambition of becoming a global leader in technology and
innovation. This collaboration between DGHR and DIFC's Dubai AI Campus underscores the importance of aligning efforts across
government entities to equip talent in the public and private sectors with advanced AI capabilities. By investing in human capital and
fostering cross-sector partnerships, we are creating the foundations for a sustainable knowledge economy that will drive growth,
competitiveness, and long-term prosperity for the emirate.”

Under the terms of the agreement, both parties will jointly implement a series of training programs focused on real-world applications,
with courses tailored to meet the requirements of targeted segments in the labour market, such as senior executives and mid-level
managers. It will also include the provisions for hands-on training and practical projects, alongside career mentorship, residency training
programs, and exclusive opportunities for networking and knowledge exchange, to foster strong professional relationships among
participants.

A key initiative under this partnership is the ‘AI for Civil Service' program, aimed at upskilling government employees by training them in
using generative AI technologies to enhance public services. As part of the program, participants need to present innovative ideas, which
will be assessed by a specialised committee comprising representatives from the DIFC, Udacity, and industry experts. The program also
provides opportunities for knowledge sharing, along with access to advanced mentoring and coaching sessions.

The cooperation also focuses on hosting advanced and specialised seminars and workshops, producing high-quality scientific content,
and sharing the latest research on AI applications in human resources management. Furthermore, the agreement promotes joint efforts
in supporting tech initiatives and events held in Dubai, aiming to enhance institutional performance and improve workplace
environments.

This agreement builds on the Department's relentless efforts to develop and invest in human capital in order to position Dubai as a
leader in digital transformation and boost economic productivity through the broad integration of AI education. It represents the shared
vision of the DGHR Department, DIFC, and Dubai AI Campus to foster a culture of government-led innovation while preparing a new
generation of leaders and specialists with the necessary skills and mindset to shape the future and actively support Dubai's global
ambitions and forward-looking vision.
