The new training plan for 2005 was also demonstrated which focused on the training in field of fighting inflation, terrorism funding, and the investing funds as well as electronic bank operations and international accounting standards.

Ali Humaid, the public relations manager at the Central Bank of Yemen, in statement to Yemen Times “we aim to assess the rehabilitating training activity for the employees of the banking sector in Yemen from 1997 through 2004. The programs through the previous years were intensive and the trainees in 1997 were few, not more than 100 cadre. Now the number of trained employees is in the hundreds. They have benefited much from the workshops and trainings programs. So that's why we celebrated today.”
