Digital technology is gradually moving to the heart of technical education and vocational training in Côte d’Ivoire. On Sept. 4, 2026, Jean-Louis Moulot, the minister delegate responsible for technical education, opened a training program focused on digital tools and their use in teaching.

The official ceremony took place at the Technical High School of Abidjan-Cocody. It was held under Africa DigiEmpower, a pan-African program led by THEYA, or Technology Health Education Young Africans, by Cybastion.

Fatima Kourouma, Africa DigiEmpower’s program manager, and Edga Bouba, Cybastion’s director general for Digital Solutions, attended the ceremony.

The initiative is designed to strengthen instructors’ digital skills and, above all, promote better integration of technology into technical and vocational education and training programs.
