Objet publié

The goal of this project is to contribute to the modernization of Cuba's basic industries. Its purpose is to strengthen the Ministry of Basic Industry institutions that provide technical training, worker certification, industrial certification, and performance monitoring. The role of the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) is to facilitate the capacity development of Cuban staff involved in instructional, institutional, and program support functions; to collaborate with Cuban counterparts in the design, development, and implementation of a sustainable computer-managed distance learning system; to strengthen certification systems for workers and industrial processes; and to establish performance monitoring, project management, and internal monitoring capabilities. Benefiting from the lessons learned during the first phase of this project, the current project involves capacity development assignments in Cuba and Canada led by specialists from NAIT, Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training (AIT), and other Government of Alberta agencies.
