DP World celebrates supply chain management diploma by 17 future leaders

DUBAI, 13th June, 2023 (WAM) -- DP World celebrated the completion of the Netherlands-based Rotterdam School of Management Supply Chain Management (RSM SCM) diploma by 17 Emiratis.

The diploma followed an 18-month study of eight modules at one of Europe’s most prestigious business schools as part of their ongoing “20Xel Leaders Programme”, taking the best parts of a master’s degree in a hybrid learning environment.

The last model, exciting to the graduates, was held in Rotterdam, where participants also visited different locations of ports and logistics businesses. In Europe’s busiest port and the epicentre of international trade, RSM provides first-hand knowledge on global supply chains, driving its world-renowned expertise and research.

The participants included six female and 11 male aspirants. This is a long-term UAE national talent development programme aiming to accelerate Emirati talent development and growth through world-class development and performance opportunities.

It has become part of the company’s success story, shifting from being a local port operator to a global logistics solutions provider, with talented young Emiratis contributing significantly to making the industry leader that DP World is today. The graduation ceremony was held at DP World’s Head Office in Jebel Ali.
