Titled 'Creating Ambassadors', the training course is funded by the Bank of Alexandria and implemented by Rythm, a hospitality training agency, Baghat noted, pointing out that this training is the first of its kind offered to the staff who are working at the museums and archaeological sites here.

By the end of the course, the trainees will get certificates accredited by the Institute of Hospitality in London. The course will be generalized at the remaining museums and archaeological sites.
