Meanwhile, Professor Ahmed Mezhar, head of the Educational Studies and Research Team at the center, underlined the strategic significance of such research in improving continuous training outcomes. “This study represents a pivotal step at the national level,” Mezhar stated. “It aims to define the priorities for ongoing training of teachers working in inclusive education settings.” He added, “The findings will help develop a clear regional and local plan to meet teachers’ needs, enhancing the quality of education in inclusive classrooms. We hope this study serves as a springboard for refining training programs and addressing teachers’ needs in a systematic and effective manner.”
Mezhar further highlighted the leading role of the Regional Center in this initiative, noting that the study would contribute to creating regional training strategies tailored to the needs of teachers in inclusive education. He stressed that this effort opens new horizons for advancing inclusive education in Morocco.
