Training 370 Young People for Digital Jobs in “Assiut Technology Park”
Major General Dr. Hesham Abu Nasr, the Governor of Assiut, and Counselor Abdel-Radi Seddik, Head of the Administrative Prosecution Authority, witnessed the launch of specialized training programs to qualify 370 young graduates for modern digital jobs.
This initiative is taking place within the Technology Park in New Assiut City, affiliated with the Silicon Waha company, as part of the state’s efforts to promote digital transformation and create qualified young cadres for the labor market.
This initiative is a collaboration between the Assiut Governorate Directorate of Manpower and the Assiut Oil Refining Company, with full support from the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology.
The training courses are being held within the “Digital Egypt Innovation” labs and will continue until the end of next June.
The programs include 12 training tracks in specializations that meet the demands of the digital labor market, most notably digital marketing, data analysis, the Internet of Things, and software development.
This reflects the national trend towards empowering youth in the Upper Egypt governorates and achieving sustainable development.
During his speech, the Governor emphasized the importance of these unique initiatives, noting that the state is strongly seeking to create an environment that nurtures young talents in the fields of technology and entrepreneurship.
He also announced the launch of a new project for recycling electronic waste and using it in technical training, in a step aimed at preserving the environment and promoting local innovation.
These efforts come within the context of Egypt’s Vision 2030 to build a knowledge-based digital economy and develop human capabilities in various governorates, especially in Upper Egypt.
