Officials of Oman Trading Establishment LLC (OTE) visited the college recently to hold talks with college management on possible collaboration in different areas, particularly in giving training to students. The OTE Group was headed by Mr. Jahanbux Mistry, OTE General Manager. Other officials that came with Mr. Jahanbux are Dr. Anirudha Sen, Mr. VR Nayak, and Mr. Warma. They were met by NCT officials that included Dr. Ahmed Al-Ghassani, College Dean, Dr. Bader Ahmed, AD Academics, Dr. Imran Hameed, HoD Business Studies, Mr. Ismail Al-Riyami, HoD OJT Department, and Mr. Mohammad Samiuddin Saheem, HoS Marketing.

During the meeting, the two groups shared information between the two organizations, focusing on student training systems and processes. Dr. Ahmed said that the college is enjoying the reputation of having high standard in its graduates, and that the college would like to further build into this by improving its training program for students. He said that because of this, the college is currently in the process of establishing a business simulation centre which will help provide exposure to its students on the real-world application of running a business organization. Dr. Ahmed also disclosed that the college is forging ties with various industries not only to improve existing partnerships but also to provide better training to students.

On behalf of the OTE Group, Mr. Jahanbux said that since human resource development and training is also a core business of his organization, and inasmuch as OTE also provides formal training programs for Omani youth with the support of the Ministry of Manpower, they would like to take the initiative of further taking this forward by collaborating with NCT. Mr. Jahanbux proposed an internship program for the students of the college, wherein OTE will accept internships for one to two months during summer vacation and give them practical training in various OTE departments such as the workshops they maintain as well as in Audit, Accounts, Credit, and IT Applications departments.

The meeting of the two groups also produced other agreements such as exchange of guest lecturers between the two organizations, offering of short courses for OTE staff to upgrade their skills, formal visits to OTE Training Centre for students of the college to gain more practical skills, and future collaboration regarding staff development between the two organizations.

In a related development, the OTE Group recently agreed to become one of the Gold Sponsors of student activities for the current academic year. In this regard, the company donated a total amount of 3,000 OMR to fund various student activities such as the Cultural Week celebrations and other similar events. /junlontok (with reports from Dr. Imran Hameed and Office of the College Dean)
