CAREER GUIDANCE STAKEHOLDERS PLATFORM 2022

QCDC, in partnership with the Ministry of Education and Higher Education, the International Labor Organization’s office in Qatar, and Qatar Foundation’s academic institutions, hosted the third edition of the “Career Guidance Stakeholders Platform”. The theme of this event was “Accelerating Human Capital Development through Career Guidance under the QNV2030”, and its aim was to tackle the strategic and tactical issues across the following seven thematic areas: National Career Guidance Policies and Strategies, Multi-Channeled Career Guidance Services, Middle-High School Transition of People with Disabilities, K-12 Career Guidance in Schools, Employability of Higher Education Graduates, Transition and Upskilling of Adult Workforce and Harnessing Labor Market Intelligence. Representatives from various

key government departments and institutions in the public, private, and mixed sectors came together at the event as active participants to reflect on the themes discussed. The 2022 Career Guidance Stakeholders Platform also aimed to review the progress made based on the recommendations from the 2018 platform and to suggest practical steps to be taken over the next five years to advance the human development goals outlined in Qatar’s National Vision 2030 through career guidance initiatives. Following the Platform, QCDC developed a set of recommendations with the aim of enhancing career development policies and practices in Qatar by creating a career guidance and development ecosystem and maximizing its role in the realization of QNV 2030 human development pillar objectives. The summary of these recommendations is available in a report on QCDC’s website.
