Ras Laffan, Qatar Petroleum, Ministry Of Internal, Qatar

Client Introduction

Qatar Petroleum (QP) and the Qatar Ministry of Interior (MOI) have established the Ras Laffan Emergency and Safety College (RLESC) to provide training courses in Qatar and the MENA region. This initiative aims to cater to Qataris interested in pursuing careers within QP and the Energy/Industry sector. Texas Engineering Extension Service (TEEX), a member of the Texas A&M University System, has been entrusted with delivering Pro-Board certified and non-certified training at the RLESC.

Various training and skill development programs offered by RLESC include:



• Academic, English Language, and Vocational training programs for secondary school graduates seeking technical and clerical jobs at QP.
• Preparing Qatari secondary school graduates for degree study programs in Qatar, the UK, USA, Australia, and Canada through the Academic Bridge Program (ABP).
• Training employee-level staff (ELS) to enhance their performance standards and facilitate career progression.
• Arranging English language courses for employees and trainees at all levels, including QP subsidiaries, affiliated companies, and external organizations, companies, and ministries in Qatar.
