A technical meeting was held on Sunday 12 July 2026, at the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to review trainees’ projects and the outcomes of training programs implemented under the EU4Skills project. The meeting was attended by H.E.

The meeting featured a review of the main results and outputs of the training programmes, which included the Executive Programme for Developing the Capacities of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research’s staff, the intensive Power BI Data Analysis programme, and the Training of Trainers programme aimed at developing curricula in the fields of green economy and information technology. The meeting also included a presentation of the National Framework for Enhancing the Employability of Education Outcomes in Libya.

Participants also discussed the tools, knowledge, and expertise acquired through these programmes, as well as mechanisms for applying them within their institutions.
