Egypt has recorded continued progress in the Digitalization of Work and Training Index issued by the Digital Cooperation Organization, moving firmly into the “Leading Level” category. The country’s score rose by 1.9 points between 2024 and 2025, reaching 80.3 points in 2025, reflecting sustained advancement in digital transformation across work and training sectors.
This improvement has been driven by national initiatives focused on digital skills development and workforce readiness. Programmes such as Our Future Is Digital provide free training to young people in modern digital skills, enabling access to online freelance and remote work opportunities. Another key initiative, Digital Egypt Builders, plays a central role in equipping youth with advanced competencies aligned with the needs of both local and international digital labour markets.
Officials highlighted that these initiatives contribute directly to strengthening Egypt’s digital human capital, improving employability, and supporting the country’s broader digital economy objectives. The rising index score underscores Egypt’s commitment to integrating digital tools into workforce development and ensuring that skills training keeps pace with global technological change
