Continuing to implement the Generation Green 2020-2030 strategy, the Ministry of Agriculture is about to launch five new vocational training programs. Requiring a total budget of 1.2 million dirhams, these programs aim to provide the labor market with more qualified labor.
Faced with recurring demand from a job market always on the lookout for a competent agricultural workforce, the Ministry of Agriculture intends to expand its training offering through the imminent launch of five new programs: agricultural mechanics , gardening, poultry farming, market gardening and cattle breeding. The winners of these courses are expected to contribute to the socio-economic development of the agricultural sector.
A diversified and attractive offer
The establishment of these new agricultural training programs reflects the desire of the supervisory ministry to offer a “diversified, efficient and attractive” training offer so as to cover all production sectors by 2030. The aim being to meet the overall demand of the professional market.
Concretely, these courses will train 150,000 graduates, of which 10,000 will be destined for higher education and 140,000 for professional training. These new training courses adopt a skills-based approach (APC) as an approach to engineering training systems. An effective way to upgrade and improve the professional qualifications of young people and optimize their socio-professional integration. In order to make it more affordable, the APC has been the subject of a general presentation document intended for people working in the field of professional training and which presents in detail the various stages of the program development process according to this approach.
To complete this official document, the ministry has developed five specific methodological guides supporting the completion of each stage of program development according to the skills-based approach. This is the guide for analyzing a work situation (AST) and producing a professional reference framework, another dedicated to the development of a professional training project according to the APC, a manual for developing a professional training program according to the APC, a guide for developing an evaluation framework according to the APC and that relating to the educational and material organization (GOPM) linked to a professional training program.
Updated strategy
The strategic agricultural sector has numerous development programs and structural reforms. The global context marked by food security, climate change, the rise in prices of agricultural products, the empowerment of producers, and the fight against poverty has made it necessary to update the agricultural strategy, particularly in terms of restructuring. and redefinition of its missions.
“It is in this perspective that Morocco has followed a new approach for the development of a new ambitious and proactive strategy,” indicates the ministry.
As a reminder, the training offer of the Ministry of Agriculture already includes 70 sectors covering various agricultural professions such as livestock breeding, crop production, irrigation, mechanics and valorization, spread over 19 sectors for the Specialized Technician level. (horticultural production, management, topography, rural hydraulics and irrigation, poultry farming, breeding, marketing of inputs, agri-food, etc.), 9 sectors for the technician level (arboriculture, market gardening, breeding, field crops, installation of irrigation systems, etc.) , 12 sectors for qualified workers (agricultural mechanics, mixed farming-livestock farming, meat cutting, etc.), and 30 professions for apprenticeship training.
Emergence of an agricultural middle class
“Generation Green 2020-2030” places the human element at the heart of its concerns. It aims, under this first foundation, to contribute to the emergence of an agricultural middle class, to energize rural youth, to develop human capital and to further structure farmers around efficient agricultural organizations. The development of the human element is in fact a sine qua non condition for continuing the modernization of the sector and the consolidation of achievements.
