Doha: The Qatar Olympic Academy has successfully completed the fourth module of its Advanced Sport Management Course, which took place over two days under the theme "Financial Management in Sports and Olympic Institutions."

The module was led by Dr. Bilal Al-Salem, Professor of Accounting at Qatar University's College of Business and Economics. His sessions delved into a variety of essential financial topics, including the foundations of effective financial management, its role in ensuring institutional stability, strategic financial planning techniques, precise budgeting practices for optimal resource use, and structured approaches to financial monitoring and reporting to support informed decision-making.
