Training Planner

Siemens and GIZ join forces to implement an innovative public-private approach to demand-oriented occupational training that contributes to improving employability and employment in Egypt.

As part of this approach, Siemens, on behalf of both partners, establishes and operates a joint occupational training center in Ain Sokhna as a sustainable service provider for demand-oriented modular training programs in selected technical fields. It will offer training for employees of different Egyptians companies in the field of energy and other sectors. GIZ and Siemens jointly steer the training center.

Due to its location in the Industrial Park in Ain Sokhna, the training center is close to other enterprises and their employees. These companies are offered to send their staff to the training center for occupational training. The center will provide basic courses as well as specialized further training, simulating real-life conditions, using the latest technology and a variety of teaching approaches. At least 5,500 Egyptians employed by different local companies will benefit from this improved and demand-oriented training.

The training planner will support the implementation of the training commitment towards customers.
