Egypt launches national framework to measure technical education quality

Egypt launched a national indicator framework to measure technical and vocational training quality at a conference held on behalf of Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly.

• Education Minister Mohamed Abdel Latif announced the framework at a conference held on behalf of Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly.
• Abdel Latif said the education system's success should be measured by its impact on graduates and the labor market, not by the volume of programs.
• Amara said the framework, developed with the EU and the European Training Foundation, implements Law 160 of 2022 creating the Itqan authority.
• Amara said workshops in December 2025 and March 2026 helped draft the indicator framework with experts from European countries.
• The framework was developed with Germany's GIZ and is modeled on the EU's EQAVET quality-assurance system adapted to Egypt.
• Etqan said the launch begins a new phase of applying the indicators, which it will review and update periodically.
