When the Egyptian Banking Institute (EBI) teamed up with the UK’s Craven College, their work together enhanced its ability to prepare young people for a career in the fast-moving world of finance.
Support from Craven College helps us provide the full range of skills that professional training needs… the partnership was about upgrading, enhancing and developing our programmes.

This is just one of many partnerships we have helped to form across Egypt’s economy in sectors including engineering, chemical industry, media, fashion and tourism.
Read more about our partnerships and how they’re helping young Egyptians get ready for work in the British Council Annual Report.
We also believe that work-based training helps jobseekers upgrade their skills for future employability, therefore we have partnered with the Industrial Training Council to pilot an adult Apprenticeship Programme that enables individuals who are not in full-time education to acquire training through private sector employers and training providers.
