The Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology (MCAST) is to open a new college in Misrata with the aim of offering students vocational training, Malta's Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi has announced.
The Times of Libya reports that following a meeting with Libyan President Mohamed Magarief, an agreement had been reached in principle on setting up a campus which would offer vocational courses chosen by the Libyan authorities according to the country’s priorities.
A memorandum of understanding has also been signed for the use of the Libyan institute in Ta’ Giorni to be used as an upgraded teaching institution, giving EU-recognised courses delivered by key Libyan professors and teachers.
