Huda Lighting Launches Noor to Accelerate Workforce Capability Development and Continuous Learning

Published on 01-07-2026

For more than 26 years, Huda Lighting has delivered innovative lighting solutions across the Middle East, North and West Africa, and the United Kingdom. As the organization continues to expand its regional footprint and grow its workforce, investing in people and building organizational capabilities has become an increasingly important driver of sustainable growth.

In today’s rapidly evolving business environment, organizations must continuously develop the skills and capabilities required to adapt, innovate, and remain competitive. Creating opportunities for employees to learn, grow, and build new capabilities is no longer just a development initiative, it is a business imperative.

Recognizing this need, Huda Lighting officially launched Noor in April 2026, a centralized capability development hub designed to support continuous learning, skills growth, and onboarding across the organization.

Creating a Centralized Learning and Development Experience

With employees operating across multiple countries and branches, providing consistent access to learning and development opportunities is critical to building a capable, aligned, and future-ready workforce.

Noor serves as a centralized hub where employees can access learning journeys, development resources, and onboarding experiences anytime, anywhere. By bringing learning into a single ecosystem, Huda Lighting is enabling a more scalable, structured, and accessible approach to capability development while ensuring alignment with organizational priorities and business goals.

Noor reflects Huda Lighting’s commitment to fostering a culture of continuous development, empowering employees to build the skills, knowledge, and capabilities needed to excel in their roles, adapt to evolving business demands, and contribute to the organization’s long-term success.

Building Skills for Today and Tomorrow

Noor is designed to support the development of the skills employees need to succeed in a rapidly changing workplace. Through curated learning pathways, employees can build both the human and functional skills required to perform effectively, collaborate successfully, and adapt to evolving business needs.

Learning experiences are tailored to role requirements and development priorities, helping employees strengthen capabilities such as communication, leadership, problem-solving, customer focus, digital proficiency, and job-specific expertise.

By adopting a skills-based approach to learning, Noor enables employees to continuously develop the capabilities that drive individual performance, team effectiveness, and long-term organizational success.

Reflecting on the implementation of Noor, Cerine Kattoura, Operations Director at IQUAD Learning Solutions, highlighted the broader impact of creating a modern learning ecosystem:.

“Leading the implementation of Noor has been a rewarding journey, not only because of the technology being introduced, but because of the impact it can have on people. From the outset, our goal was to create a learning experience that supports employees at every stage of their journey, from onboarding to ongoing skills development. Seeing this vision come to life through our collaboration with Huda Lighting reflects a shared commitment to empowering employees, building capabilities, and fostering a culture of continuous learning.”

“Our experience with IQUAD has been very positive. The platform is simple, user-friendly, and easy to navigate, which has made managing our e-learning activities much smoother. What we appreciate most is the responsiveness of their team they are always quick to support us and address any questions or requests. It has been a pleasure working with them, and we truly value the support and service they provide.” said Jessy Ghamra, Group HR Manager at Huda Lighting

Transforming the Onboarding Experience

In addition to supporting ongoing learning and development, Noor plays a key role in enhancing the onboarding experience for new employees.

A comprehensive digital onboarding journey has been designed to help new joiners quickly familiarize themselves with the organization, its culture, processes, and available resources. By centralizing onboarding content and providing immediate access to essential information, Noor helps create a more engaging and consistent introduction to the organization while accelerating readiness and productivity.

This digital-first approach simplifies the onboarding process, reduces administrative complexity, and enables new employees to begin their journey with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed from day one.

Looking Ahead

As Huda Lighting continues to expand its presence across the region and beyond, investing in workforce capability development remains a strategic priority.

The launch of Noor represents an important milestone in the organization’s people development journey, providing employees with greater access to learning opportunities while supporting business growth through continuous skills development and capability building.

By creating a centralized platform for learning, development, and onboarding, Huda Lighting is strengthening its commitment to empowering employees, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, and preparing its workforce for future opportunities and challenges.

At IQUAD Learning Solutions, we are proud to partner with Huda Lighting on this important initiative. Together, we are helping create a learning culture that empowers employees to grow, strengthens organizational capabilities, and supports long-term business performance. We look forward to continuing our collaboration and contributing to the ongoing development of Huda Lighting’s workforce as the organization continues to expand and evolve across the region and beyond.
