Doha: Qatar Foundation (QF) graduates record high employability rate and demonstrate to have technical skills, according to a tracer study.

Also by being part of the QF community, graduates have benefited from countless opportunities to explore new fields and interests, broaden their skills and mindsets, and identify their goals in life, according to President of Higher Education, at QF Francisco Marmolejo.
