| February 02, 2010 Abu Dhabi Businesswomen Council (ADBWC) is taking part in the Abu Dhabi Recruitment Show “Tawdheef 2010” being organized by the Abu Dhabi Tawteen (Arabic for “Emiratization”) Council.
The ADBWC’s participation in the event is intended to promote and introduce services and activities being provided by it for both businesswomen and the Mubdi’ah (Arabic word for “creative lady”) Programme, the most important of which are: encouraging the development and upgrading of women’s ideas, attracting a number of female students and graduates and helping them take heart to nurture their notions of setting up their own private businesses in future through training courses and workshops being organized, along with networking with businesswomen by means of gatherings and meetings for the purpose of exchanging experiences and ideas.
The ADBWC’s stand is also exhibiting a variety of specialist publications illustrating how to make use of its programmes, businesswomen national campaigns, training courses, as well as of the Mubdi’ah Programme the licence of which has been utilized and held by 1100 women nationals right to the end of last December. This reflects how it has been a success and mirrors female citizens’ penchant for it.
Likewise, the Abu Dhabi Recruitment Show “Tawdheef 2010” is designed also to highlight the importance of education, training and of growing familiar with career and professional opportunities offered by public and private departments and organizations based in the UAE for citizens, men and women alike, so that the exhibition can attract a number of diverse categories, including such visitors as graduates, job-seekers and students.
It is worthwhile that the Mubdi’ah Programme aims at backing up and supporting women nationals’ ideas and initiatives for making investment in private projects, training them in order to open up new fields and roles, urging them to be creative and fostering their capabilities. Similarly, the programme regulates the process of practising some home-based business in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi through numerous activities and makes it possible to exercise 20 business and services activities from home; namely, trading in dates, coffee (i.e. having a coffee mill), spices and condiments, perfumes, oud, incense and nutmeg, cosmetics as well as in beauty soap, together with henna patterns, calligraphy and drawing shops (Class II), dressmaking (Class II), beauty parlours, typewriting and photocopying of documents, legal translation, interior designing for buildings, organizing weddings and other events, educational consultancy, socio-educational services, handicrafts and environmental manual pieces, arrangement of natural and artificial flowers, training on cosmetology and make-up, not to mention trading in abaya and sheila (Arabic words for “cloak” and “headgear” respectively).
