Awsaj Academy, part of Qatar Foundation’s Pre-University Education, celebrated the graduation of 360 students from its Prime Program Class of 2026 during a ceremony held at the Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC), attended by graduates, their families, and members of the academy’s academic and administrative staff.

It also reflects the confidence families have placed in their children’s abilities and their unwavering support throughout their journey to reach this moment, where we proudly celebrate their achievements.
“Throughout their time in the program, we have witnessed inspiring stories of growth, resilience, and achievement. Many of our students joined facing academic challenges or learning difficulties, yet their determination and perseverance, combined with the support of our dedicated educational team, enabled them to make remarkable progress and reach this well-deserved milestone.”
Dhaini explained that the program goes beyond developing core academic skills, placing equal emphasis on personal and life skills such as effective communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and responsibility. This holistic approach helps prepare students to pursue further education or enter diverse career pathways with confidence and independence.
“By providing a supportive and encouraging learning environment, students have been able to discover their true potential and build self-confidence. Opportunities to participate, take initiative, and assume responsibility have also played an important role in fostering their independence and readiness for the next stage of their lives.
