Summary:

The Dual Training and University Program is based on the active cooperation of the Private Sector and the universities in Mauritius. In this collaboration, the university and private sector representatives sit together and assess the future job needs. This close collaboration allows for gradutes to have higher possibilities of finding a job after finishing university.

The Dual Training Programme (DTP) also provides a mix of practical on-the-job training and classroom studies, implemented by the Ministry of Labour, Industrial Relations, Employment and Training (MLIRET) in collaboration with the Human Resource Development Council (HRDC) and the Skills Working Group (SWG).
