Rashed Haque, Additional General Manager and Head of Telecom Management- Network Technical Division for GrameenPhone, Bangladesh, said, "Etisalat has a very diverse portfolio, and I am really impressed by the facilities available at the Academy. It is the first time I have ever been in an institute of this size, and look forward to being closely associated with the Etisalat Academy."

The delegation later toured the classrooms at the Academy, which are being used by the trainees.
