Students from the University of Bahrain participated in the second edition of the “Skill Up” program for the second semester of the 2025–2026 academic year, held from 11 to 13 May 2026. The program was organized by the University’s Alumni Affairs Directorate in cooperation with INJAZ Bahrain and with the participation of a distinguished group of Bahraini labor market institutions.
