Qatar’s Supreme Education Council (SEC) has signed a deal with the Qatar Leadership Centre (QLC) to develop and strengthen capacity building of its leadership.

 

Under the MoU, QLC will organise a speciliased leadership training programme to upgrade the skills of the council’s officials, to achieve the SEC’s objectives in line with the Qatar National Vision 2030.

Mohammed bin Abdul Wahed Al-Hammadi, Minister of Education and Higher Education, and secretary general of the council, said: “This MoU represents the SEC’s largest training plan since its launch, as the council seeks to ensure that its employees receive the best training courses to promote their skills and improve their performance and career progression.

 

“This MoU is a practical result of the SEC’s calls to invest in education and training, as investing directly in human capital is one of the priorities of the SEC.”

 

Such agreements with advanced institutions like QLC reinforces the prestigious position and success of the centre, he said.
