AWCC has a short-term goal of directly employing 5,000 locals before its 10th Anniversary to continue to show its’ commitment to the Afghan people.

Amin Ramin, AWCC’s Managing Director, had this to say about AWCC’s investment in personnel resources, “AWCC’s long-term growth ultimately rests on the successes of its employees.

AWCC’s Chairman, Ehsan Bayat, is proud to continue to see Afghans building and maintaining the network, “AWCC strives to remain a telecommunication leader and is always interested in employing Afghanistan’s men and women that can contribute to the company’s future. The Afghan people have quickly grasped the telecom field through training and on the job experience and now run many facets of AWCC’s day to day operations. In turn, they are helping to provide for their families and make a better life. Also, many Afghans that have gained experience at AWCC have gone on to start their own businesses or joined other companies which has further helped develop the Afghan workforce. ”
