Hany Torky, Chief Technical Advisor and Knowledge Project Manager at UNDP, said:“Various

with skills that are essential to thrive in the future job market. By developing a highly skilled

workforce, we can contribute to boosting the overall competitiveness of Arab economies.
UNDP remains committed to supporting communities, with special focus on disadvantaged

and vulnerable populations, to ensure a prosperous future.”

The Academy offers two enrollment options for its programs. The first option allows individuals

to join independently by registering on the Academy's website, while the second option

involves having partner organizations, such as government bodies, non-profits, industry
associations, or other institutions, nominate interested learners. This method utilizes the

expertise and networks of these organizations to effectively reach targeted groups that would

benefit from the initiative and possess the relevant skill sets.

Furthermore, the Academy has streamlined the steps for participation, beginning with a

simplified registration process. Applicants need only to provide a valid identity card, ensuring

complete privacy and confidentiality. After this, participants can choose their preferred
learning path based on their specific requirements and goals, as outlined in the program's

guide section. The Academy aims to ensure that the program runs continuously and that

individuals can enroll at any time. Upon completing the learning path, learners will receive a
set of certificates in addition to a UNDP-MBRF-Coursera badge detailing the skills they

acquired.

The Future Skills Academy invites everyone interested in seizing this remarkable opportunity
to enhance their skills and advance their professional and academic goals. By participating in
