The International Hotel Management Programme, initiated in October 2022, holds a prominent position in the Ministry of Tourism's new human capital development strategy. Designed to support Saudi's growing tourism industry, the programme aims to attract more Saudi nationals to the sector.

Over a period of nine months, the participants completed six modules covering essential skills for hospitality leaders in business management, including advanced finance and budgeting, marketing strategies, data analytics, hospitality real estate investments, and international business strategies.

The commencement ceremony, held at the Palacio de Congresos in Marbella, Spain was held under the patronage of HH Princess Haifa bint Mohammed Al Saud, vice minister of Tourism, and Saudi Arabia's deputy minister of Tourism, HE Mohammed Bushnag.

Princess Haifa bint Muhammad Al Saud expressed her admiration for the graduates and the impact of the programme, saying: "I'm deeply inspired by the dedication and passion exhibited by these young Saudi talents. With their skills and knowledge, they are poised to become true ambassadors of Saudi Arabia's hospitality and tourism excellence, contributing significantly to our nation's growth and prosperity.”
