Aligning Vocational Training with Industrial Sector Demands

Minister of Industry Ferid Kourtel and Minister of Vocational Training and Education Nacime Arhab met in Algiers to review the initial progress of the National Framework for Training and Skills. This strategic initiative seeks to sync training programs with the actual needs of the economy. The industrial sector acted as a pilot case, involving workshops and field surveys across major industrial groups such as GICA, AGM, and SNS to identify professional skill gaps. The upcoming phase will extend these efforts to include private companies, ensuring that the training system produces a qualified workforce capable of supporting industrial competitiveness and growth.
