The Problem
In the Moroccan education system, especially in universities, there's a
noticeable gap between what students are taught and the rapidly
changing technologies and job Market Demand. This issue is caused by
the outdated Curriculum and it is made worse by the lack of well-
equipped
teachers

curriculum

Morocco, politicians focus on issues that can show results within their term in office.

the skills necessary for securing employment in the dynamic job market.
