In addition to annual donations to various local charities in Iraq, the company has set up a training center that teaches newly graduated electrical engineers on installation, commissioning, and testing of CCTV security and network systems. Every week a batch of engineers learn about the industry and become more qualified to start their small businesses or work as technicians in the field.
Most new hires in Al-Aswar Trading Group are electrical engineers and recent graduates. This ensures a supply of fresh ideas in the company as well as providing a stepping stone for those without work experience.
