Prime Minister Dr. Jafar Hassan visited the Jordanian Academy for Tourism and Hospitality in the Marka district and directed full support to expand its programs. His directives included rehabilitating workshops and halls, installing a public safety system, establishing a new multipurpose hall, upgrading a computer lab, and carrying out facility maintenance. Additionally, he instructed supplying the academy with necessary equipment and devices to develop training services and attract more young men and women, enabling them to acquire essential skills and professions needed to enter the labor market.
​Established in 1986, the academy houses 13 workshops and classrooms to conduct training programs. It currently enrolls 393 male and female trainees, operating on a two-shift system (morning and evening), and offers 7 training programs in areas such as food and beverage production and service, the German language, and other vocational disciplines in high demand within the labor market.
​The employment rate among the academy's graduates reaches approximately 65%, with 440 trainees graduating last year.
