KPMG in Qatar has partnered with Qatar Finance and Business Academy (QFBA) for its Kawader programme which aims to train young Qataris who are in their third year of university or fresh graduates. 

KPMG in Qatar’s head of financial services, Omar Mahmood, said KPMG is committed to mentoring young Qatari candidates who strive to reach their full potential in line with Qatar National Vision 2030 and its own corporate social responsibility initiatives.

“It is necessary for students to be involved in a training programme, while they are away from university as it helps in their professional development and aids them in determining their career path,” said Mahmood. 

Kawader programme, officially launched in July 2013, is a unique qualitative initiative aimed to persuade the most talented young Qataris to choose a career in the financial sector. It is essentially a two-part programme spanning six months comprising classroom and workplace exposure for the chosen interns.The Peninsula
