Furthermore, the collaboration comes in alignment with Dubai’s ambitious vision to attain global
leadership in technology and digital transformation. It also contributes to the goals of the Dubai

Economic Agenda (D33) by developing a sustainable knowledge economy based on exploring and
leveraging advanced global technologies to strengthen the field of human resources.

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.
