PROGRAM PRESENTATION

  • As announced at its last Conference in 2018, AUSIM is committed to funding, starting in 2019, the post-secondary education of high school graduates from disadvantaged areas or backgrounds who have significant potential to study in the IT field.
  • The study carried out by an Ad Hoc team set up by AUSIM highlighted the interest of outsourcing the management of this program to specialists with expertise in this field, in terms of “sourcing,” selection, follow-up, etc.
  • The selection of the Moroccan Student Foundation (FME), a non-profit association recognized as a public service organization, was based on the mission of enabling the brightest graduates from disadvantaged backgrounds to pursue higher education and to assist them in their professional development.

  • Overcoming self-censorship habits.

Introduce them to the business world:
