Muscat: The Ministry of Education, represented by the Directorate-General of Administrative Affairs – Department of Training and Rehabilitation, organised a training programme in managing sports events and tournaments in cooperation with the Omani School Sports Federation and the Ocean Institute. The training programme kicked-off on Sunday and will continue until Thursday at Al Amal Club. The implementation of this training programme comes in light of the increase in the number of events organised annually by the sports committees in the educational governorates. These 100 odd sports events require organising by specialists in managing events. The programme targets 34 employees of the Office of the Omani School Sports Federation and the educational governorates to provide them with effective management skills and accurate planning.
Participants in the programme will obtain the necessary qualification to work in the management of sports events, through several themes, including methods of organising, evaluating, and managing sports events, financial and accounting management of sports events, management of sponsorship, financiers, designers, suppliers, stakeholders and the public, and attracting, managing and training employees and volunteers to work in sporting events, marketing sports events, and managing risks related to sports events.
