Lammah Intaj hosts dinner for Intaj Members

Sharjah24: The "Intaj" Centre, affiliated with the Sharjah Social Services Department, hosted its third annual gathering under the initiative "Lammah Intaj." The event aimed to introduce members of "Intaj" and connect home-based business owners with one another. The dinner was held at Sharjah Media City (Shams) and attended by several women affiliated with the center.

Enhancing Member Engagement

On this occasion, Maryam Al Hammadi, Director of Intaj Centre, stated that the center continually enhances its annual agenda to offer the best experiences for its members. She emphasized that such gatherings, held away from work commitments, bring joy to the members while allowing them to network and exchange expertise.

Encouraging Business Licensing

Al Hammadi emphasised that the event presents a valuable opportunity for members, especially newcomers, to pursue the "I’timad" license from the Department of Economic Development, which supports 50% of the associated costs. The license enables participation in nationwide events, provides access to free professional workshops, allows for product showcasing at multiple sales locations, and supports promotion through online platforms and exhibitions coordinated by the center.

Training and Certification Programs

She called on beneficiaries of the social aid services offered by the department to enroll with "Intaj" and leverage the training and qualification programs accessible at all branches. All training programs are available at no cost, with participants earning certifications from accredited training institutes. The center offers a diverse array of five specialized training packages. These include "Tayyib," focusing on perfumes and incense; "Atayib," dedicated to food products; "Ibda’a," which emphasises handicrafts; "Anaqa," tailored for fashion and accessories; and "Mihra," centered on traditional crafts.

Membership Benefits Introduced

During the gathering, Haifa Al Zarouni, Head of Home Production Development, presented an overview of the "Intaj Center Membership Benefits." Additionally, Marwa Hassan, a professional craft rehabilitation specialist, introduced the "Hirfah Award," launched by the center to encourage members to participate in events, exhibitions, and programs, ensuring continuity and business sustainability.
