PROSPECTS Kenya supported the development and implementation of a national RPL framework in collaboration with a digital skills training provider to make the most of existing curricula for RPL certification in digital skills.
The Digitalize your Business (DYB) training tool is specifically designed to provide practical guidance on using e-commerce to sell products and/or services online and digitizing business processes. It was initially developed as part of Egypt's digital transformation, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, as a complementary module to the existing SIYB package. Following its success, it was adapted in Uganda and Kenya, with other modules added to suit the local contexts.

In Iraq, a digital monitoring tool was introduced and used by young engineers to monitor and report on Employment-Intensive Investment Programmes (EIIP) sites. The tool was designed to ensure adherence to quality standards, alignment with environmental and social safeguards, and safety standards across project sites, while also introducing a technology that would allow young people to gain work experience using digital skills.
