1/23/25, 8:57 AM MBRF and UNDP announce opening of registrations for Future Skills Academy - Middle East News 247

Hany Torky, Chief Technical Advisor and Knowledge Project Manager at UNDP, said: “Various global
reports indicate that the growth of AI will significantly reshape the employment landscape by 2030. This

underscores the dire need to empower individuals in the Arab region 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 well-structured training

programs, learners can gain the ability to achieve their aspirations while contributing to the development of a
prosperous and sustainable future in all areas.
