The National Oil Corporation (NOC) has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Project Management Institute (PMI), the world’s leading authority on project management certifications. The MoU sets out a framework for cooperation in areas such as training, capacity building, and the adoption of international standards and methodologies to better manage programs and investment portfolios across Libya’s energy sector.
The MoU was signed by NOC Chairman, Eng. Masoud Suleman, and PMI Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa, Mr. Hani Al-Shazly.
The initiative will provide access to internationally recognized educational solutions and professional certifications, and it will also establish a joint platform that reflects the identities of both organizations. The platform will support employees and help develop local talent by enabling training within Libya and promoting best professional practices.
NOC Chairman, Suleman, praised this strategic collaboration, noting that it is the first initiative undertaken by the NOC’s Technical and Administrative Development Center, part of the General Department of Training, since its establishment. He emphasized the NOC’s ongoing commitment to developing its human resources and providing them with the knowledge and digital tools needed to improve the effectiveness of strategic project implementation and achieve operational excellence across the sector.
For his part, PMI Regional Director Mr. Hani Al-Shazly said the Institute is proud to partner with the NOC to strengthen its institutional capabilities and build a sustainable foundation of expertise.
