BENEFIT celebrates graduation of second cohort of "Fintech Drivers" programme

BENEFIT, the Kingdom’s innovator and leading company in Fintech and electronic financial transactions service, has announced the successful completion of the second cohort of its six-month "Fintech Drivers" Programme.

The initiative forms part of BENEFIT’s broader efforts to equip Bahraini talent with practical, industry-relevant capabilities and to support the evolving demands of the financial services and digital innovation landscape.

Designed to equip graduates with practical skills and specialized expertise, the programme offers a high-quality learning experience that supports a confident transition into the workplace and enables participants to contribute to innovation across the sector.

To mark the occasion, BENEFIT hosted a virtual graduation ceremony celebrating seven graduate trainees who successfully completed the program and were onboarded across key business departments within the company over a six-month period.

The initiative was delivered under Tamkeen’s Furas Program, within a structured framework designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry requirements, translating theoretical knowledge into practical fintech applications. Commenting on the milestone, Mr. Salah Alawadhi, Chief of Human Resources & Administration at BENEFIT, said: “The trainees demonstrated strong discipline and adaptability within a dynamic digital banking ecosystem, reinforcing the importance of investing in human capital as a key driver of sustainable growth, in line with the objectives of Tamkeen’s Furas Programme to empower Bahraini youth”
