Ahmed Al-Rajhi, Saudi Minister of Human Resources and Social Development (HRSD), said the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Scholarship Program takes into account the labor market strategy.
 

“The Kingdom's goal in 2030 is to be among the world’s top 20 countries in the labor market efficiency index,” Al-Rajhi said in a press conference.
 

He added that the Kingdom’s labor market will mainly benefit from this program, noting that the number of Saudis in the local labor market reaches 2 million.
 

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman launched, on March 7, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Scholarship Program, which marks the beginning of a new era in the scholarship program that will contribute to enhancing citizens’ competitiveness through upskilling the human capital in new and promising sectors.
