In
2002, AMIDEAST chose Morocco as the site for the organizations
50th anniversary conference on Higher Education in
the Arab World: Preparing for the Global Marketplace.
The location was highly appropriate. By expanding educational
opportunities for Moroccan students and facilitating increased
academic exchange with the United States, AMIDEASTs
office in Rabat has come to play a vital role
in fulfilling the organizations mission.
AMIDEAST has offered advising services in Morocco since
1979. Our Educational Information Centers are stocked with
pamphlets and other literature from U.S. and regional universities.
The centers are equipped with computers, which students
use to browse the internet for information about educational
opportunities. Academic advisers are on-hand to provide
information about study opportunities in the United States.
AMIDEAST Morocco administers most of the major standardized
exams required for study at U.S. universities. These include
the TOEFL®, GRE® and SAT®. We also offer test
prep courses and English language courses. Our workshops
for Moroccan professionals equip participants with the skills
needed to succeed in todays increasingly global economy.
AMIDEAST also organizes educational exchange programs for
American students and others interested in visiting Morocco
and learning about its rich cultural, historical and archeological
legacy. For short-term visitors we offer study tours, providing
a far more in-depth understanding of the country than one
could gain from an ordinary tourist trip to Morocco.
Throughout its decades of service in Morocco, AMIDEAST
has contributed to the development of key aspects of the
country's educational system. In the 1980s, we helped the
Moroccan government launch a pilot project to integrate
women into the workforce. In the 1990s, our project actively
focused on improving teaching in rural schools and encouraging
girls to stay in school. ![](https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/eot2008/20090509105741im_/http://www.amideast.org/images/offices/morocco/male_teacher_computer.jpg)
