In an unprecedented step to enhance professional development, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development obligated all establishments with 50 or more employees to comprehensively disclose all their training data on the Qiwa digital platform by the end of this year. The obligation includes detailed disclosure of the number of training hours, types of training activities, and the number of trainees from different categories (employees, students, graduates, job seekers), with an emphasis on the need for the duration of individual training to exceed 8 training units annually. This step reflects the Ministry's keenness to digitize the training sector and provide accurate data to measure the impact of training programs on the labor market.
The decision also requires these establishments to publish their training plans on the Qiwa platform in a transparent manner, so that everyone can view them and learn about the efforts made in the field of training, in addition to submitting periodic reports on the implementation of the plans and the budget spent, which contributes to enhancing transparency and accountability in this field.
