Mr. Alsumaim also gave his appreciation to the members of the Board and members of BPAC who have shown great enthusiasm and have volunteered to work around the clock to meet the objectives of this club. He pointed out that this enthusiasm was reflected on the speed of the formation of the various committees that started to work on plans for the future to ensure that the club achieves the desired objectives.

On this occasion, Manager of BPAC, Zainab Mohammed, said that Bahrain Polytechnic has set itself the task to provide the labor market with graduates who are ready to work professionally in a spirit of courage and initiative. The core value [of the Polytechnic] is based primarily on the reputation of creating graduates that meet the needs of the community. In this sense, the alumni club encourages its members to participate and involve themselves with national and international stakeholders, and also realize that as a national institution, they have an essential role in the future of social and economic prosperity of the nation.
