JEDDAH: The graduation ceremony of the fourth cohort of Red Sea Global’s Vocational Training Program was held on Thursday, with Prince Saud bin Abdullah bin Jalawi, governor of Jeddah, in attendance, along with Abdulaziz Al-Duailej, president of the General Authority of Civil Aviation, Red Sea Global CEO John Pagano, and senior executives from the company and its partner organizations.
A total of 386 graduates completed the program in airport services, luxury hospitality, and health and wellness tourism operations. One of the ceremony’s most memorable moments came when video messages from the graduates’ families were shown on screen.
Addressing the graduates, Pagano said the Kingdom’s tourism ambitions ultimately depend on people rather than infrastructure.
“Those who came through our education and training programs are already helping bring our destinations to life, and very soon, many of you will join them.
“You are joining us at a very special moment in Red Sea Global’s journey. The Red Sea is welcoming tens of thousands of guests from around the world. More resorts are preparing to open, and new opportunities are emerging across our facilities, our subsidiaries, and our partners.”
