Morocco is moving forward posting results that have surpassed the set goals for the aviation industry 2020 plan. With 140 enterprises in 2019, the sector grew from 3 enterprises 20 years ago and is now generating revenue of 17 billion dirhams. Morocco is expecting to attract 120 more aero-space industry enterprises by 2020 which would create 8700 more jobs and bring the sector’s exports to $1 billion. In tandem with efforts to attract investors, Morocco has created special schools to train human resources. Every year 3300 people are trained in the aero-space industry sector in schools created for that purpose such as the Institute for aeronautical jobs (IMA) and the specialized institute for airports logistics (ISMALA).
