Earlier, rehabilitation and training program for health diploma holders was set up, according to the royal decree of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques last year. The program seeks to rehabilitate a group of health certificate holders who have not had the appropriate opportunity to get a job. The program consists of two phases, the duration of which is 6 months each. The first phase "Trainees' rehabilitation on English language skills, computer, and special skills needed in the health sector runs for two semesters. Colleges of Applied Studies and Community Service will conduct this phase." The second phase is a practical clinical program which will take place in hospitals.
On this regard, President Aldawood expressed his happiness with this achievement, thanks to the program itself and those who support it. He said, "You deserve this celebration in your university for the seriousness and diligence that you have given through this program." Aldawood stated that he was following the reports issued from within and outside the university about that program since its inception. He also promised to keep on taking care of the alumni. Therefore, he ordered the concerned authorities at the university to contract with the graduates for 4 months, and also to search for permanent jobs to them, by virtue of the university's very large project such as the new university hospital, which definitely needed distinguished Saudi cadres.
