Diriyah

Diriyah, located northwest of Riyadh, was the capital of the first Saudi state and is home to At-Turaif, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, now at the center of the Diriyah Gate development, a large-scale cultural, hospitality, and lifestyle destination. This scale of construction and hospitality development creates demand for a workforce trained to both Saudi regulatory requirements and international industry standards.

Tamkene provides accredited B2B training, competency assessment, and certification services to companies operating in Diriyah through a mobile training model, bringing instructors and, where applicable, training equipment directly to client sites in the city.
