The Qatar Career Development Center's (QCDC) My Career My Future programme has trained over 1,000 students, aiming to become the largest national training scheme in the country, according to the centre's executive director, Saad Abdulla al-Kharji. The programme guides young people from their school years into higher education and the labor market, aligning their interests with the skills sought by Qatari employers.
QCDC has secured support from various ministries and national entities, anticipating the program's growth with additional stakeholders. Participation in the programme has significantly increased, with the latest editions attracting a large number of participants. The initiative offers students practical insights into potential careers, including workplace culture, professional responsibilities, and necessary qualifications.
It connects career guidance with direct exposure to education and employment pathways, fostering a more interconnected career development ecosystem. Mentoring begins early, with the program's focus on developing and empowering Qatar's human capital to meet labor market demands. QCDC not only trains students but also guides them on higher education, connecting educational outcomes with labor market needs through career development pathways.
The program's university fair allows students to interact with admissions staff, gaining direct access to university programs and admission requirements.
