What is The “Oman’s Future Skills initiative” aim?
  • Designing Future Skills Framework for Oman by: reviewing international best practice, validating with international experts, testing it with Omani experts, and creating a bespoke framework tailored to Oman’s context, needs and strategy objectives
  • Creating a whole-of-government approach (where government agencies work across portfolio boundaries with all public, private and not-for-profit sectors to achieve closing the skills gap) through mutually beneficial incentive schemes
  • Facilitating Public Private Initiatives (PPIs) for skilling programmes by the private sector in the form of partnerships, apprenticeship systems, coordination of curricula, career guidance, joint research projects, and other such areas of potential collaboration between industry and academia.
