ISMALA was set up in September 2013 to provide specialist training in the aeronautical industry.
Under the new governance framework, the institute will focus specifically on training workers for aircraft maintenance and repair. ISMALA will work alongside the Institute for Aeronautical Work, a center that trains workers on specific aeronautical industry needs, for instance electrical work, and will soon also include a middle-management school.
According to Loubna Tricha, the president of GIMAS, the purpose of today’s memorandum is to ensure ISMALA is best placed to respond to any changes in workplace needs in Morocco’s growing aeronautical sector.
