CAVT, Abdulla Al Ghurair Foundation to offer 455 vocational scholarships

Amman, August 4 (Petra) – The College of Advanced Vocational Training
(CAVT) has partnered with the Emirati Abdulla Al Ghurair Foundation
to provide 455 scholarships for vocational students this year.

Supporting two training cohorts across CAVT campuses, the initiative
covers specialized programs combining classroom instruction with
hands-on practice to boost youth employment and foster regional
economic development.

An initiative of the Crown Prince Foundation supported by Germany
through the KfW Development Bank, CAVT focuses on closing the skill
gap in the region.

“These scholarships play a pivotal role in widening access to
technical training, expanding future horizons, and equipping a
qualified workforce that meets evolving market needs across the
Kingdom,” said CAVT CEO Ammar Gharaibeh.

The partnership aligns with national efforts to enhance youth
economic participation by modernizing Jordan’s technical and
vocational education system. Both non-profit organizations focus on
expanding access to high-quality, market-aligned education, helping
young people gain practical skills and build sustainable careers.
