On the evening of Saturday, May 23, 2026, His Grace Bishop Ermia, General Bishop and Chairman of the Coptic Orthodox Cultural Center and the ME Sat TV Network, signed a new cooperation protocol with Mr. Abdel Nasser Zahran, General Manager of the AMAC Training Center, affiliated with Al-Ahram Foundation. The agreement comes as part of the Center’s strategy to expand professional and creative training and qualification programs for youth and children, building on the successful partnership between the two institutions since 2023.
The new protocol aims to provide an advanced package of specialized training programs and courses through both in-person and online learning, offering broader opportunities for education and skills development in accordance with the latest professional standards.
This cooperation builds on the success of the previous protocol, which included the implementation of the “Professional 2D Designer Diploma,” covering training in Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe InDesign, with participants receiving the opportunity to earn internationally recognized Adobe certifications.
The new agreement seeks to empower youth and children through joint training programs that foster creativity and professional development. These include specialized diplomas and innovative programs such as “The Young Programmer,” “The Young Graphic Designer,” and “The Young Presenter.”
The training portfolio also covers modern fields aligned with labor market demands, including Artificial Intelligence tools, Digital Marketing, Social Media Management, Cybersecurity, and Cyber Risk Awareness.
Both parties emphasized that the protocol represents a new step toward preparing qualified generations equipped with the scientific knowledge and practical skills needed to keep pace with rapid developments across various sectors, supporting efforts to build and empower future-ready Egyptian talents.
The protocol was signed during the graduation ceremony for participants in the media training courses organized by the Coptic Orthodox Cultural Center. These courses included Arabic Language, News Presentation, Voice-Over, and Television Programs. Outstanding trainees were honored, and top graduates were awarded a 15-day training opportunity at ME Sat TV, in addition to having special programs produced for them and broadcast through the channel’s digital platforms.
The signing of the protocol, coinciding with the graduation of a new cohort of trainees, reflects the Coptic Orthodox Cultural Center’s vision of integrating training with continuous professional development, helping to prepare generations capable of innovation and active participation in the nation’s development journey.
