The development objective of the First Skills and Employment Development Policy Loan (SEDPL1) Program is to support the Government of Morocco to implement its program of improving skills, productivity and quality of employment. Support to skills development and employment is a key component of the Country Partnership Strategy (CPS). As part of the World Bank program in Morocco outlined in the CPS (FY10-FY13), this program document proposes a SEDPL1 for an amount of EU€ 75.1 million (US$ 100 million equivalent). This operation is the first of a series of two single-tranche operations of 18 months each which will support the Government of Morocco to implement its program of improving skills, productivity and quality of employment through four pillars: (i) matching skills developed within the vocational training and higher education systems to the needs of the labor market; (ii) improving the effectiveness of intermediation services, including active labor market programs; (iii) improving job quality; and (iv) strengthening the labor market information system.
