Contexte culturel
The 'Certificate of Attendance' (شهادة حضور) is often as important as the knowledge itself for career progression. In Egypt, the word 'Kors' (from English 'course') is very common in casual speech, but 'Dawra' remains the formal term. There is a high emphasis on 'Workshops' (ورشة عمل) which are often referred to as 'Dawra' if they span multiple days. People often use the word 'misharik' (participant) to describe someone attending a course.
