Qatar Airways Pilots' Licence & A300

[waitec]

Can somebody please be of help in answering the following questions :-

1) Are Qatar Airways pilots' licences issued by the Qatar Dept. of Civil Aviation? If so, do they by any chance follow the JAAs? I ask because I visited the Qatar Flight Academy's website and their written exams follow the JAA curriculum.

2) Will the A330's eventually replace the second hand A300's in the near future?

Thanks for your help.
