Invest for Jobs and Coficab partner to develop skills and improve working conditions in Morocco
With the support of Invest for Jobs, COFICAB celebrated the launch of its Learning Management System (LMS) on September 16th, 2025, in Kenitra, Morocco.
Coficab is a company specialising in the production of cables for the automotive industry. It was founded in 1992 in Tunisia and is part of the ELLOUMI industrial group. On September 16th, 2025, Coficab’s Learning Management System was officially launched at Coficab’s site in Kenitra, Morocco. Built with the support of Invest for Jobs, this Learning Management System is part of a strategic digital transformation programme led by Coficab. The objectives are to enhance skills and customise training modules. More than 1,400 Coficab’s staff will be granted access to this platform.
The training materials developed through the Leaning Management System will be locally anchored and made available to other companies. This approach will help spread improved health and safety practices across Morocco’s industrial sector.
The cooperation agreement between Invest for Jobs and Coficab aims to recruit 250 graduates, including 50 women and 125 young people, into Morocco’s industrial sector. Another 1,000 beneficiaries, including 200 women and 500 young people, will benefit from better working conditions, especially in health and safety. In total, 1,412 people, including 282 women and 700 young people, will be trained to improve their employability in national and international industrial markets.
The launch event was an opportunity to celebrate the going live of the LMS platform by scrolling through the main functionalities of this platform and looking at the main achievements and milestones realized since the start of the project.
