Dr. Abdullah Alshamsi, Vice-Chancellor, BUiD, said:
"It is important that the country's future decision makers be able to apply the needed skills to develop the UAE's position as a leading financial hub. Our students have enormous potential to positively benefit their future work environments, and we want to encourage professional development within companies and organisations by providing key structured programmes."
The one-day course offered an introduction to classical decision theory and game theory, including a lecture on understanding the spread of information and contagious behaviour. The second part of the programme offered the students an introduction to incentive theory, herding behaviour and efficient market hypothesis and its anomalies.
The one-day training given to individuals on the Tomorrow's Regulatory Leaders (TRL) Programme was organised through BUiD's Professional Development Unit (PDU) which launched in March this year in response to the growing regional demand for specialised fast-track training.
BUiD works closely with major corporate clients to create tailored educational and practical programmes that provide a continued professional development route to enhance participant's roles in the workplace.
BUiD's current masters programmes are available across the fields of Education, Human Resource Management (HRM), Finance and Banking, Project Management (PM), Information Technology and Information Technology Management, Sustainable Design of the Built Environment and Systems Engineering.
Under the professional development unit, organisations and individuals have the option of taking independent masters' units as a 'continued professional development' course in their specific area of interest.
