HE the Minister of Economy and Commerce Sheikh Ahmed bin Jassim bin Mohamed al-Thani yesterday attended the graduation ceremony of a qualification course for trainees with special needs.
The trainees from Shafallah Centre for Children with Special Needs were given job qualification training by the Ministry of Economy and Commerce (MEC) on clerical and administrative skills that suit their capabilities, so that they could have better employment opportunities at MEC.
“Since its launch in 1999, Shafallah Centre for Children with Special Needs has managed to provide job opportunities for 65 students, who successfully passed all the qualification courses,” said Mohamed Badr al-Sada, director of the centre, expressing great appreciation at the efforts of MEC in making the
programme such a success.
Khalid al-Shuaibi, chairman of Volunteer Committee for the Employment of Disabled People, said the MEC has been a pioneer in promoting the qualification of such people and hiring them. He considered this as an encouraging model for other entities in the country.
Meanwhile, Maha Mohamed al-Nesf, director of the Human Resources Department at MEC, said the ministry intends to offer jobs for some of the graduate trainees.
