Giving Bahrainis the opportunity to access potential opportunities within the tech field is a key component of Tamkeen’s mandate to empower the national workforce.”

Mr Tariq Alsaffar, Founder and Chairman of Reboot 01 Coding Institute said “We want to give everyone a chance to change and improve their lives. Reboot 01 takes people with no experience, from any educational or vocational background and transforms them into real full-stack developers in only 2 years. These skills are highly sought after by local and multinational companies like Google, Amazon, telecoms, and the banking industry, and we believe Reboot 01 will help address the jobs of the future for Bahrainis. At Reboot 01 it’s never too late, you can shift your career into the lucrative industry of tech.”

The training, upskilling, and reskilling options available to Bahrainis to accelerate their career growth and create a generation of skilled tech professionals who can drive the productivity and development of the technology sector in the Kingdom have been enhanced by strategic partnerships Tamkeen has established with world-class tech training providers as part of its new strategic direction.
