Saudi Arabia has extended its range of Professional Verification to 160 countries. The program, where workers in highly skilled professions are checked for their technical and professional proficiency before entering the labor market in Saudi Arabia, is a move to fit in with the quality-enhancing workforce strategy as part of Vision 2030 for the kingdom’s economic growth.
The Professional Verification program is an evaluation process for workers in fields such as engineering, healthcare, and construction. Candidates must pass both theoretical and practical exams conducted by accredited centers in their home countries. This ensures that only highly skilled professionals meet the growing demand for expertise in the Saudi labor market.
By expanding the program, Saudi Arabia strengthens its commitment to promoting fair competition as well as improving workplace standards. For employers in the kingdom, this will establish a more reliable pool of workers; international professionals are allowed to demonstrate their qualifications under a globally respected system.
The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, the governing body of the initiative, has collaborated with local and international agencies to simplify the process. As the program continues to grow, it is expected to promote global partnerships and set new standards for professional excellence.
