• One strategic recommendation
• I recommend keeping this workshop focused exclusively on Saudi Arabia and the UAE, exactly as you've titled it. Although Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait share many similarities, combining all six Gulf countries into one workshop would force you to cover each country too superficially.
• A focused KSA & UAE workshop allows you to provide more practical details on:
• Licensing (e.g., Saudi Commission for Health Specialties and UAE health authorities)
• Recruitment processes
• Typical salary structures
• Benefits and workplace expectations
• Career progression within these two major markets
• Later, if demand grows, you can launch a dedicated "Hospital & Community Pharmacy Career Path – Oman, Qatar, Bahrain & Kuwait" workshop. This not only keeps the content high quality but also gives Orienta room to expand its catalog with additional specialized workshops.
