Tourism Breaking News
As part of its successful ‘Hospitality Qatar’ programme, the country’s first national tourism training programme, Qatar Tourism has launched a new ‘Beach Expert’ training course, which aims to provide beachfarers who come directly to visitors with the expertise needed to visit Qatar’s growing beaches, desert camps, hotels and resorts with beach views and open beaches that are frequented by many in Doha and beyond.
The course, which allows applicants to choose the times that suit them, is available in Arabic and English and takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. Upon completion, participants receive a certificate from Qatar Tourism stating that they have acquired the necessary knowledge and experience regarding the latest information about Qatar’s pristine beaches.
Commenting on the new Beach Expert course, Ms. Moza Al Maadadi from Qatar Tourism said : “Qatar has beautiful coastlines and crystal clear waters that are admired by residents and many of our international visitors. The Beach Expert course is an opportunity to highlight the refreshing atmosphere that Qatar offers to its visitors, such as the bright sun, clear sea water and soft sand, especially as new beaches are being developed and included in Qatar’s growing hospitality offerings. We are delighted with the success and growth of the Moyadaf Qatar programme, and invite beach staff who interact directly with the public to explore the latest training courses and be provided with the latest relevant information.”
The flagship program, Medyaf Qatar, is part of Qatar Tourism’s Academy of Service Excellence and has accredited more than 35,000 customer and visitor professionals, including hotel concierge staff, shopping mall security staff, restaurant staff, taxi drivers and service workers. The recent expansion of the Modyaf Qatar programme reflects Qatar Tourism’s keenness to provide memorable global experiences for visitors and residents alike.
The latter addition will also be integrated into existing initiatives such as the Qatar Professionals Programme (a training program provided by Qatar Tourism to its overseas partners) as well as the Tour Guide Training Programme.
Qatar Tourism invites tourism experts in Qatar to obtain accreditation provided by the “Medyaf Qatar” programme, which is available free of charge to those wishing to obtain it.
