Qatar Finance and Business Academy (QFBA), which operates under the auspices of the Qatar Financial Centre, has announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with malomatia, the leading provider of technology services and solutions in the government, healthcare and education sectors in Qatar.
The agreement was announced during the Qitcom 2014 conference and exhibition held in Doha recently. The MoU was endorsed by QFBA CEO Dr Abdulaziz al-Horr and malomatia CEO Yousef al-Naama.
On the occasion, al-Horr said: "This MoU is the beginning of what we expect will be a strong and fruitful partnership with malomatia, opening the doors for both organisations to share their expertise and work together on future plans.
"We are eager to start promoting the common training and education goals of our two national entities. The next step in this partnership is to define the core areas of our shared e-learning capabilities to deliver added value to clients seeking to build their human resources capabilities and skills in specialised areas of the finance and business sector."
On his part, al-Naama said: "We cannot talk about a knowledge economy without considering the role of information technology. Doing business today and interacting with stakeholders cannot be possible without embracing technology and innovation.
"We strongly believe that our infrastructure and e-learning platforms, supported by our international e-learning partnerships and a keen understanding of the content requirements of the local market, will add value to QFBA's already extensive credentials as the leading education and training provider in Qatar specialising in financial and business streams."
QFBA offers year-round calendar courses, available in areas such as banking, insurance, finance, Islamic finance, capital markets and asset management, compliance and anti-money laundering, business & management, as well as training for soft skills and foundation skills.
In addition, QFBA's experienced training staff are already working with many large organisations, including brands in both the B2B and B2C arenas in Qatar that have active financial training mandates for their staff.
E-learning is a primary malomatia offering and the company specialises in corporate training solutions for the banking, oil and gas and healthcare sectors, in partnership with accredited international content and training leaders.
