Supported e-Learning was launched in June of this year to offer Batelco staff the opportunity to develop both personal and professional skills in a wide range of subject areas. 'Time Management', the first course to be offered, is just one of 26 e-Learning courses that staff can avail of this year.

Supported e-Learning combines e-Learning with classroom based training for maximum effectiveness. Batelco Training Centre provides the tools and information necessary for the interactive learning experience and monitors the progress of each student, offering support and encouragement to ensure the timely and successful completion of the course.

Batelco Chief Executive Peter Kaliaropoulos and Batelco Human Resource & Services Unit General Manager Shaikh Ahmed Al-Khalifa congratulated the successful participants on being the first group at the Company to complete the inaugural course.

"e-Learning lets us have information at our fingertips and provides the opportunity to apply that knowledge interactively at our own pace," stated Mr. Kaliaropoulos.

Batelco Training Centre has expanded its range of products so that in addition to offering classroom based training they can provide more opportunities for more people to receive training.

"Our strategy is to develop an organisation with a culture where self-learning is encouraged," said Mr. Kaliaropoulos.

"Human capital is the most competitive advantage a company has and by supporting the development of staff the company will reap the benefits long term," he added.
