**Educational Sessions keep Students up-to-date with latest Technologies**

Batelco, in line with its commitment to support education and students, has developed a popular programme to keep university students up to date with the latest technologies. The Company’s Youth Marketing Team is leading the on-going initiative that aims to introduce students to the latest developments in the world of technology through educational sessions.

The programme involves giving the students a broad knowledge of various telecom related technologies through discussions related to the future of Broadband services, the evolution of mobile technologies, the future of mobile broadband and cloud services, plus more.

Batelco Youth Marketing Team members have already held the Technology Evolution Forum at Al Ahlia University and Bahrain Polytechnic and plans are in place to hold further sessions to meet demand. In response to student feedback, more advanced sessions will also be arranged to accommodate the needs of technically minded students.

Batelco Group General Manager Media Relations Ahmed Al Janahi said that providing relevant educational opportunities and training support for university students forms a key part of Batelco’s CSR program.

“We are delighted to be of help by delivering our tailor made Technology Evolution Forum at various leading institutes around Bahrain,” added Mr. Al Janahi.
