The Bottlenecks Alleviation Program (BAP) funds a set of flagship projects designed to close specific, evidence-based gaps between what Syrian refugee and vulnerable Jordanian students learn and what the labour market actually demands. Rather than following a fixed curriculum, BAP issues targeted calls, or procures specialized training directly, based on current labour-market evidence, prioritizing applied digital skills, green growth, healthcare support, smart agriculture, energy efficiency, and advanced manufacturing, alongside other approved areas of demand. Every funded project must involve employers directly, whether through practical assessment, internships, or project-based work, ensuring training translates into real job prospects rather than credentials alone. …

This produced a set of short, practical courses in fields such as computerized decoration and carpentry, cooling and air conditioning engineering, electrical installations and control machines, industrial fashion design, and mobile phone maintenance. …
The Teacher Certificate Scholarship Program (TCSP) invests directly in practicing teachers already working in Jordanian public schools, equipping them with formal pedagogical preparation many never received on entering the profession, a gap common across the region and one that research shows can be a genuine turning point in a teacher’s career.

The certificate combines three …

A master’s degree remains a major launching …
