Manama : The Crown Prince’s International Scholarship Programme (CPISP) launched its ‘Candidacy Programme’, for its 2025 scholarship selection process.
The CPISP held an orientation at the Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance (BIBF) to brief the scholarship candidates, from both public and private schools, on the training they will receive during the programme.
Ava Garbutt, Director of CPISP, commended the vision of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, to invest and enhance the skills of Bahraini youth. She congratulated the candidates for being short-listed.
During the Candidacy Programme, students will complete a number of courses with a focus on critical thinking, academic writing, leadership, and communications.
Students will also undergo a career and personality aptitude test, prepare for standardised tests, and complete a Level 3 Certificate in Team Leading granted by the UK-based Chartered Management Institute (CMI).
The CPISP will announce the scholarship recipients early next year. Recipients will be selected based upon their academic merit and leadership qualities as determined by their Grade Point Averages (GPA), IELTS score, SAT scores, and the scores of the critical thinking and leadership courses undertaken.
