Doha: The Bedaya Center for Entrepreneurship and Career Development (Bedaya Center), a joint initiative by Qatar Development Bank and Silatech, successfully concluded a summer camp organised for girls studying in high schools and universities. The students enjoyed the activities that took place in the first week in addition to getting an opportunity to experience the work environment during the second week of the camp.
Reem Al-Sowaidi, General Manager of Bedaya Center, said: “We were keen on allocating a camp for girls during summer time. This was aimed at enabling them to identify the fundamentals of Qatari working environment prior to the completion of the annual holiday season. We strongly believe that this will prepare them to enter into the realm of practical life, and provide a fruitful job shadowing experience.”
“The camp gave all participating girls an opportunity to see the different types of jobs and helped them to follow the staff closely while carrying out their work by accompanying them throughout the work day. They also gained expertise that will qualify them to become successful employees in the future,” she added.
