DANS celebrates graduation of first batch of employees

The development programme is inspired by the four elements of life and caters to all levels and specialist roles within the organisation.  The Air component is aimed at developing staff for leadership roles in the organisation, while “Sun” focuses on developing the next line managers and team leaders.  The “Water” component is designed for those who opt to take up specialist and supervisory roles in the future and the “Earth” element caters to newly-joined employees.  Consistent across all segments are the fixed components of mentoring, shadowing, engagement in corporate social responsibility activities and networking.  Additional features of the programme are tailored to individual and role requirements.

In reference to the event, Mohammed Ahli commented: “DANS is committed to providing the best career development opportunities for its employees as part of its strategy to enhance their knowledge, skills and expertise in order to serve the aviation industry efficiently and professionally.  The Development Programme sits at the very heart of this strategy and will go a long way in meeting our future needs of qualified and experienced professionals to manage the rising air traffic growth in Dubai.” 

As part of this commitment the programme’s objective is to incorporate 70 per cent of its Emirati employees into the programme over the next five years.
