His Excellency the Minister of Health, Dr. Muhammad bin Ali Alhayaza, has issued today a resolution appointing 5234 technicians holding health diplomas, among those who received training at the Ministry of Health (MOH), in a number of specialties. This resolution came pursuant to the noble Royal Decree stipulating redressing the situation of those trainees who have passed the occupational classification in the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCHS).
Consequently, the Ministry has hired those graduates, and enrolled them in a training program for one year. They received the theoretical knowledge at governmental universities, and the practical training at the MOH facilities. A number of 5237 graduates passed this program, and as a result they have been appointed on Self-Employment Program in the certain jobs, as shown in the appendix herewith attached.
