Egypt trains telecom regulators from 15 countries
Two-day program brings together 37 participants to strengthen equipment certification and technical regulatory capacity
CAIRO, Egypt (MNTV) — Egypt’s National Telecom Regulatory Authority has trained 37 participants from 15 countries in procedures for approving telecommunications equipment, expanding its efforts to share technical expertise and strengthen regulatory capacity across international markets.
According to TechAfrica News, the authority conducted its seventh online training course on October 20 and 21 through the Egyptian African Telecom Regulatory Training Center.
The two-day program focused on Egypt’s type-approval procedures for telecommunications equipment, technical standards and testing requirements associated with radio-spectrum use.
Equipment type approval is an important regulatory process through which authorities assess whether telecommunications devices comply with applicable technical and safety requirements before entering a market.
Consistent procedures can help regulators manage interference, enforce standards and oversee increasingly complex communications networks.
The Egyptian authority said the initiative supports skills development in the information and communications technology sector and contributes to wider digital transformation efforts.
The training centre, known as EG-ATRC, is a certified provider under the International Telecommunication Union Academy.
It delivers capacity-building programs for telecommunications regulators across Africa, helping authorities develop expertise needed to supervise their domestic markets.
The participation of representatives from 15 countries gives Egypt an opportunity to share its regulatory experience while supporting greater technical cooperation among telecommunications administrations.
The initiative comes as countries across Africa and other developing markets expand digital infrastructure and face growing demands for reliable equipment testing, spectrum management and harmonized regulatory practices.
