The e-TAMKEEN program was implemented between 2018 and 2023, training approximately 6,800 participants at a total cost of 3.5 million euros.

Last week, Morocco’s Digital Development Agency (ADD) announced the launch of the e-learning program "e-TAMKEEN" on the national digital learning platform Academia Raqmya. This initiative will allow more civil servants, professionals, and learners to benefit from the digital capacity-building program that was implemented between 2018 and 2023.

The program includes several training modules, such as digital communication, public innovation, collective intelligence and public problem-solving, cybersecurity and data protection, as well as digital transformation.

e-TAMKEEN is the result of a collaboration between the Ministry of Digital Transition and Administrative Reform and the Belgian development agency Enabel, aimed at training civil servants at both central and local levels. From 2019 to 2023, over 6,800 participants engaged in training activities covering 23 digital-related topics. The program required an investment of 3.5 million euros.

This initiative is part of Morocco's new national digital transformation strategy, "Maroc Digital 2030," which places a strong emphasis on strengthening professional training in ICT. This approach is designed to ensure a qualified and adaptable workforce, fostering more effective and efficient public service management in an era of accelerated digital transformation.
