Qatarization sets a hard target: meaningful permanent employment for 50 per cent or more of Qatari citizens in positions integral to private and public-sector business plans, as one of the goals of Qatar National Vision 2030. Meeting it takes more than quotas — it takes disciplined Human Resource Planning across the recruitment and succession cycle. This advanced programme covers the full span: HR strategy, recruitment and selection, induction, retention, performance management, competencies, training and development, and discipline and grievance handling. The cohort practises behavioural interviewing, works competency frameworks and assessment centres, applies Emotional Intelligence tools, runs an HR risk-assessment simulation with coaching, and builds workforce plans that identify and nurture Qatari national talent.

Frequently asked
How does the programme help us meet the Qatarization target?
Qatarization, one of the goals of Qatar National Vision 2030, targets meaningful permanent employment for 50 per cent or more of Qatari citizens in positions integral to business plans — and meeting it takes disciplined Human Resource Planning, not quotas. The programme covers the full HR cycle, from strategy, recruitment and selection through retention, performance management and development, and builds workforce plans that identify and nurture Qatari national talent.
What practical methods does the certificate programme use?
The cohort practises behavioural and targeted interviewing, works competency frameworks and assessment centres to separate excellent candidates from average ones, applies Emotional Intelligence tools, and runs an HR risk-assessment simulation with coaching — grounded in two real-life applications of succession and HR strategy.
Is this legal advice on Qatarization obligations?
No — this is professional training in recruitment, succession and workforce planning practice, not legal advice; organisations should consult their own counsel on regulatory obligations. BIZENIUS delivers the programme in English and French, with in-house editions tailored to your organisation. Sessions run on a rolling calendar with dates confirmed on request; fees and quotations on enquiry.
