Egis, a global leader in consulting, construction engineering and operations and maintenance, today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with The Egyptian Ministry of Transport (MOT (represented by the Egyptian National Institute for Transport (ENIT)) to jointly develop and deliver advanced training programs for young engineers in railway systems and urban transportation.
Under the terms of the agreement, the parties will collaborate over a two-year period to design and implement specialized education and hands-on training initiatives focused on modern railway project disciplines, including planning, design, construction, operations, safety, and maintenance. This initiative comes at a pivotal time, as, under the leadership of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi and the immense growth the country’s transportation sector has witnessed under the guidance of Lieutenant General Kamel El Wazir, Deputy Prime Minister for Industrial Development and Minister of Industry & Transport, Egypt continues to invest in modern rail networks, high-speed mobility, and advanced mass-transit solutions to support economic growth, improve connectivity, and enhance sustainability.
In collaboration with the Academy by Egis and delivered through seminars, workshops, practical sessions, internships, and field visits to railway project sites, young engineers will gain real-world experience and exposure to cutting-edge global practices. Joint research efforts will further support innovation across training methodologies and the evolving needs of the transport sector.
Each party will contribute technical expertise, training resources, and access to facilities and industry networks. Programs will be delivered at no cost to participating engineers, reinforcing a shared commitment to national capacity building and workforce development.
