Etihad's largest ever group or Emirati graduates celebrated their success at a special event yesterday – and included in their ranks the first ever Emirati female aviation engineer.
More than 450 people at the Al Raha Beach Hotel in Abu Dhabi, gathered to congratulate the group of 63 UAE National graduates - cadet pilots, graduate managers and engineering graduates - as the airline’s chief executive officer, James Hogan, presented each graduate with a certificate marking their achievement. As well as the 38 cadet pilots, 19 graduate managers and six engineer graduates from the UAE, an additional 26 graduating cadet pilots of other nationalities were recognised during the ceremony.
