Nama Center, a member of Qatar Foundation for Social Work (QFSW), has launched a three-month “beautification and healthcare” training workshop for 10 Shafallah Center students at Qatar International Beauty Academy (Tajmeel).
The intensive training programme comes as part of Nama’s Tamkin project, one of the centre’s “professional training and development” projects. It is also in the framework of co-operation between QFSW centres, according to a press statement.
The creative workshop provides the young women “with the guidance they need and nurtures their interest” in beautification and skin healthcare, one of the vital fields in the diverse labour market, which contributes to enriching the development opportunities available for women in Qatar and expands the scope of Nama’s services, the statement notes.
Nama’s Tamkin project aims to empower women and provide them with beautification and skin healthcare skills through vocational training and rehabilitation at the academy, in accordance with international standards and accreditation, presenting women with economic empowerment opportunities.
The project was launched in October under the wider scope of the centre’s “professional training and development” project, which focuses on education and training for building the capacity of socially disadvantaged and economically underprivileged groups, and enable them to participate in social work and community service.
Founded in 2009 by Nama, Tajmeel was established to provide training courses of the highest calibre within the beauty industry. The academy is Qatar’s first vocational training centre to offer internationally recognised hair and beauty therapy qualifications.
