As digital transformation speeds up and the need for modern technical and professional skills grows, the Egyptian platform eYouth and the Syrian company Doroob are betting on technology as a powerful tool. They aim to empower Syrian youth to gain essential skills and connect them with real job opportunities. To achieve this, the two companies announced a strategic partnership. This collaboration focuses on developing the digital education and training system in Syria, which will better prepare young people to join both local and regional job markets.
This partnership brings together eYouth's expertise in education technology and Doroob's network of training centers across Syria. The goal is to offer a complete learning experience that combines specialized digital content with hands-on, direct training. This approach ensures that knowledge turns into practical skills that can be used in various work environments.
A Regional Platform with Extensive Experience
eYouth is a leading education technology platform in the Arab region. It uses e-learning and blended learning models and offers a specialized digital library for professional and technical skills. The platform has helped over 700,000 graduates find job opportunities in 21 countries, and more than 3 million learners have benefited from its educational services.
Through this partnership, eYouth aims to expand its reach in the Syrian market. It will provide advanced training content that keeps pace with the needs of modern economic sectors and the demands of employers.
Education: A Gateway to Employment
On the other hand, the Syrian company Doroob focuses on building an educational model directly linked to the job market. It does this by combining digital learning with in-person training through a network of centers spread across more than seven Syrian governorates.
Doroob also works with government bodies and public institutions to equip young people with the practical skills needed in modern job fields. This boosts their chances of getting jobs or starting their own projects.
Integrating Digital Content with Field Training
Under the agreement, the two companies will combine eYouth's digital content with Doroob's local training infrastructure. This will give Syrian youth access to specialized programs in technology, freelancing, and entrepreneurship. They will also benefit from practical training and career guidance at the training centers located in various Syrian governorates.
This model aims to provide a learning experience that is more closely aligned with the needs of the job market. It combines the flexibility of digital education with the direct support offered by on-the-ground training centers.
Empowering Youth and Creating Economic Opportunities
Mustafa Abdellatif, CEO of eYouth, stated that Syrian youth have great potential and deserve training that leads to real job opportunities. He noted that connecting the regional platform with Doroob's local training centers will help deliver educational programs that directly respond to current market needs.
Sami Al-Ahmad, Co-founder and CEO of Doroob, emphasized that the main goal is to turn education into tangible employment opportunities. He explained that the partnership will support the expansion of training programs and help reach young people in different Syrian governorates.
A New Phase of Cooperation
In the next phase, the two companies plan to launch joint training programs and collaborate with government agencies, international organizations, and the private sector. These efforts aim to boost employment opportunities for Syrian youth and support the creation of sustainable economic opportunities. This will make technology and digital education key pillars in building a more stable professional future for new generations.
