EGYPT: The Egyptian National Institute for Transport and engineering consultancy Egis have signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly develop and deliver railway systems and urban transport training programmes for young engineers.
The parties are to collaborate over a two-year period to design and implement specialised education and hands-on training initiatives focused on modern railway project disciplines including planning, design, construction, operations, safety and maintenance.
Young engineers will gain real-world experience and exposure to cutting-edge global practices in collaboration with the Egis Academy and through seminars, workshops, practical sessions, internships and field visits. Joint research efforts will support innovation across training methodologies and the evolving needs of the transport sector.
‘Investing in our young engineering talent is investing in Egypt’s future’, said Nadia Hammad, National Programme Director at ENIT, on November 18. ‘This collaboration plays a vital role in equipping the next generation with the skills and capabilities needed to lead Egypt’s transport transformation and support our strategic infrastructure vision.’
