ONDA Opens Direct Access to Key Aviation Careers
Rabat — The National Airports Office (ONDA) is giving Moroccan students a more direct route into two of the most strategic careers in civil aviation.
The Mohammed VI International Academy of Civil Aviation is set to offer Air Navigation Control (CNA) and Air Traffic Safety Electronics (ESCA) programmes directly through the National Common Entrance Exam (CNC).
Previously, students could only reach these courses after starting in Computer Engineering, Industrial and Production Engineering, or Electrical, Electronic, and Telecommunications Engineering.
The extra step often left the programmes less visible, despite their central role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of air travel.
ONDA said the reform is part of its 'Airport 2030' strategy, aimed at preparing a new generation of experts to meet the industry's growing technological and operational challenges.
The change will simplify the training offer, attract more talented candidates, and align skills more closely with market needs.
By opening these doors, ONDA hopes to inspire more young people to take up careers that demand precision, responsibility, and innovation, as well as to help drive Morocco's Vision 2030 for a stronger air transport sector.
ONDA has launched the 'Airport 2030' strategy ahead of Morocco's co-hosting the 2030 FIFA World Cup with Spain and Portugal.
The plan includes doubling passenger capacity to 80 million by 2030, thus enhancing Morocco's airports' performance.
As part of the strategy, Morocco's ONDA has also launched a major reorganization of its three main divisions to boost performance.
It also announced a new visual identity for the country's airports as part of its 'Airports 2030' strategy.
The visual identity comprises heritage symbols with openness to the world through the four cardinal points. Tags: Morocco's AirportsONDA
