MoU signed with Ministry of Labor

Bayan College and the Ministry of Labor signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on June 4, 2025, corresponding to the 8th of Dhu al-Hijjah 1446, in a move to boost education, professional development, and sustainable initiatives in the Sultanate of Oman.

The agreement was signed by HE Sayyid Salim bin Muslim Al Busaidi, Undersecretary of Ministry of Labour, and Dr. Mohammed Al Kharusi, Dean of Bayan College, marking a significant step in fostering collaboration that benefits both students and the wider community.

The MoU lays the foundation for a dynamic partnership designed to enhance practical skills and media expertise among Bayan College students. Key initiatives include engaging students in producing media reports on youth projects and community programs, conducting interviews with prominent entrepreneurs for the Ministry's 'Qudrat' platform, and creating and editing media videos to enrich the platform's content.

The Ministry has also permitted as many as 50 students from the college to enroll for internship. The agreement emphasizes the development and management of media content, such as articles and infographics, to align with the platform's goals. Bayan College students will also benefit from media training opportunities, equipping them with hands-on experience and industry-relevant skills.

To ensure effective collaboration, the agreement includes provisions for confidentiality, ensuring that Bayan College will not share media-related content without prior approval from the Ministry of Labor. Both parties will appoint representatives to facilitate communication, and any amendments to the MoU will require mutual written consent.

The agreement also allows disputes to be resolved amicably or through competent courts if necessary.
