Morocco s vocational education institutions to train 1 million young people by 2017
Casablanca - The Office for Vocational Training and Employment Promotion (OFPPT) announced, in a statement, that it targets the training of 1 million young people by 2017.

Quoting the OFPPT Director General Larbi Bencheikh who was presenting the action plan for 2015 to the Board of Directors, the statement added that this goal will be achieved notably through the launch of a professional high school degree (Baccalauréat) in the OFPPT institutions.

In the 2015-2016 period the Office capacity will be stretched to 405,000 pedagogical seats compared to 370,000 currently, the same source said.

The OFPPT also cooperates with the National Initiative for Human Development and micro-finance associations and cooperatives as well as the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity and some international organisations to promote the integration of the youth in the labour market.
