Morocco Launches Initiative to Attract 10,000 Skilled Expatriates by 2030

The main vision of the ministry is to ensure "a change in terms of mobilizing skills and institutionalizing this initiative through strengthening the contribution of the Moroccan community, as skills, to the various national projects initiated under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI," says Le 360, citing Nezha El Ouafi. According to her, nearly 17% of MREs have acquired high-level training, becoming holders of higher degrees.

"This is the first time that this program has been mentioned with the perspective of implementing a series of measures to mobilize more than 10,000 Moroccan skills by 2030," she said, adding that a new program called "MRE Academy" has been launched, in collaboration with the Office of Vocational Training and Employment Promotion (OFPPT), in addition to the signing of a framework partnership agreement on June 24, 2020. The first phase of this program has been set up between five networks in four continents made up of 4,500 priority national skills in the fields of training, details the same source.

The objective of this program is to facilitate the employability of young people, to put in place new strategies on the training of trainers, training engineering and distance learning, in addition to the implementation of a new project related to the "Finkoum" program.
