As a result, in parallel with the ambitious investment programme, the water resource sector has launched a modernisation move through an institutional and organisational reforming process of services.

In this context, the continuous training actions constitute a real accompanying lever of the development strategy of the sector, and concern all water and sanitation segments. Today, the training apparatus is composed of :

-    the training structures of the MFEP (Ministère de la Formation et de l’Enseignement Professionnel) on the one side, and on the other side of MESRS  (Ministère de l’Enseignement Supérieur et de la Recherche Scientifique) and in particular ENSH).
