Doha, Qatar: Qatar Finance and Business Academy (QFBA) held a graduation ceremony for the 10th cohort of the national program "Kawader Malia".

Held under the patronage of Governor of Qatar Central Bank HE Sheikh Bandar Bin Mohammed Bin Saoud Al-Thani, the ceremony witnessed the participation of a number of officials and CEOs from Qatar's leading banks and financial institutions.

The ceremony saw the graduation of 58 Qatari students, bringing the total number of participants in the program since its inception in 2013 to 382.

On this occasion, QFBA CEO Dr. Khalifa Al Salahi Al Yafei extended his appreciation to all partners and sponsors supporting the Program for their meaningful contributions and sincere efforts, which have played a pivotal role in ensuring the sustainability of the program, achieving its national objectives, and consolidating its position as a leading initiative over the years.

Dr. Khalifa stated: "The tenth edition of the Program represents a comprehensive qualitative leap in the program's journey. It adopted an integrated methodology focused on developing four core competencies: banking literacy, financial literacy, business acumen, and social and emotional skills. This approach was accompanied by a series of substantive enhancements, including the restructuring of learning modules, the updating of training content, and the extension of the program’s duration to six months. In addition, two integrated training tracks were designed:one targeting participants employed in the financial sector, and the other tailored for recent graduates, thereby enhancing their readiness and supporting a smooth and effective transition into the labor market."
