JEDDAH: Abdul Latif Jameel Company (ALJ) celebrated recently the graduation of 14 new leaders, representing the third batch in its Business Administration Master’s for Preparation of Leaders, which is organized by Gallup in cooperation with Nebraska University in the US and Toyota International University.

Since the launch of the program in late 2005, this is the third batch of graduates. In all 46 leaders have been graduated since the program’s launch.

The ALJ Master’s program for preparation of leaders is one of the strongest business administration programs delivered by American universities.

Several leaders in major companies have graduated from the 18-month program that started in early 2006. At the beginning of each six months, students move to certain countries participating in the program to attend the courses of the university. The courses began in Morocco, followed by London, South Korea, Belgium and India. Graduation research work is based on preparation of an applied practical study on an activity of a company.

ALJ chief Mohammed Abdul Latif Jameel expressed appreciation to Gallup and Nebraska University for their unlimited efforts and thanked the students for their dedication and the outstanding results they scored.

Students in the third batch have completed their graduation requirements in late 2008. The program is one of Abdul Latif Jameel Company and Toyota annual programs for the preparation of future leaders of Abdul Latif Jameel Company.
