The National Office of Airports has announced the opening of direct access, for the first time, to two strategic specializations: “Air Traffic Control” and “Aviation Safety Electronics” at Mohammed VI International Academy of Civil Aviation.
The Office clarified that these specializations have now been integrated into the unified national competition, allowing all candidates to participate, similar to other engineering specialization pathways.
This initiative is part of the “Airports 2030” strategy aimed at developing highly skilled competencies. It highlighted that access to these two paths was previously indirect, requiring acceptance in one of the three traditional fields: Computer Engineering, Industrial and Production Engineering, or Electrical, Electronics, and Communications Engineering, which limited their appeal.
Through this reform, the Office aims to enhance the selection process for qualifications and improve alignment between training and operational needs, in addition to upgrading quality standards and ensuring optimal preparation for future professionals according to international requirements for the air transport sector.
It noted that this transformation has been realized with the support of the Ministry of Transport and Logistics and the Ministry of Higher Education, Scientific Research, and Innovation, emphasizing that expanding access to these specializations reflects the commitment of the National Office of Airports to support young Moroccan talents and guide them towards professional paths based on responsibility and innovation, contributing to enhancing technical sovereignty and fulfilling Morocco’s vision for 2030.
