The UAE has long been a leader in the global energy industry. Our forefathers pioneered this industry, and in so doing, they laid the foundations for our nation’s rapid growth and development.
Today we face a new challenge – enhance the new energy industry needs with the best and brightest minds from across the country to keep it a global role model.
To help develop this capability, ENEC established the Energy Pioneers program in 2009, which successfully developed a pipeline of Emirati talent and attracted our nation’s most promising science students, engineering graduates and experienced professionals, and trained them to become leaders in the UAE’s nuclear energy sector.
Energy Pioneers Program had an important role in the success of the nuclear energy program in the UAE, provided training according to the highest international standards by the industry’s leading global experts. Over 500 UAE Nationals benefitted from the program, with many of them playing important roles at the Barakah Plant today.
In 2023, ENEC’s operating and maintenance subsidiary, ENEC Operations, launched its first Diploma in Nuclear Technology (DNT) to equip the next generation of climate change leaders with the skills and training needed to work at the Barakah Plant. The program is being delivered at ENEC headquarters and at the Barakah Plant.
The DNT is a 24-month, entry level program for high-performing students. The program is aimed to encourage, support and nurture the next generation of UAE Nationals to discover and pursue a career as nuclear professionals. The first intake of high school graduates began their training in September 2023 and following successful completion of the training and assessment program, will become Local Operators at Barakah.
At ENEC, we recognize the importance of investing in our people. We offer excellent professional development opportunities, competitive packages, a flexible time policy, and a supportive working environment. As a proud Emirati organization, we value the traditions and heritage of the UAE, and the importance of family.
