Training Program for Moroccan Entrepreneurs - SMEs
Monday, March 06, 2006, Ifrane, Morocco

SMEs, French
March 6 – March 10, 2006
 
WDI’s Executive Education program will run two five-day seminars in Morocco to improve business skills of entrepreneurs in the country as part of the Institute’s involvement with the U.S. Department of State’s Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI).
 
WDI is partnering with Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane to strengthen skills among entrepreneurs and business people working for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Morocco. The goal is to create jobs in Morocco and help business people there benefit from the recently-signed Free Trade Agreement with the U.S. 
 
The seminars are designed to be practical to the entrepreneurs as well as applicable to their organizations. They will learn how to add value to their products and be more competitive globally.
 
The seminar held the week of March 6th will be conducted in French and will benefit entrepreneurs from small towns, especially from in and around Ifrane and Azrou. Participants will include business men and women from service sectors, manufacturing, agribusiness and others.
