Fez — The Ministry of Higher Education has introduced ELOGHA-SUP, a national e-learning platform designed and built in Morocco to strengthen language proficiency for students and trainees.
The launch took place at the Higher School of Technology (EST) of Dakhla and forms part of a wider national push to equip graduates with the linguistic skills that support employability, social inclusion, and international mobility.
Built by a multidisciplinary Moroccan team, ELOGHA-SUP opens with five languages: Arabic and Amazigh as official languages, alongside English, French, and Spanish. Each learning path is aligned with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), ensuring consistent levels, clear progression, and assessment standards that are recognized by employers and academic partners.
The platform emphasizes equity and inclusion. It offers adapted access for students with specific needs, including sign language and Braille support, so that language learning remains accessible regardless of physical or sensory constraints.
The content library already exceeds 2,000 resources drawn from academic and professional contexts, from discipline-specific texts to real-world communications and micro-learning modules.
ELOGHA-SUP blends several formats to keep learners engaged and on track. Integrated formative assessments help students and instructors check progress in real time.
An all-in-one platform
Virtual Training Scenarios simulate practical situations where learners must apply listening, speaking, reading, and writing under time and task constraints. Interactive capsules, podcasts, MOOCs, and SPOCs complement classroom teaching and can be assigned within blended or fully online courses.
Another pillar of the project is curricular alignment. The resources are mapped to Morocco’s six university clusters: sciences and technologies, engineering, humanities and social sciences, law-economics-management, life and health sciences, and education. The goal is to connect language acquisition with disciplinary needs.
Engineering students, for example, will find technical documentation and presentation tasks; law students will work with case summaries and argumentation exercises; health students will practice patient communication and clinical reporting in multiple languages.
The platform’s rollout supports broader national objectives. It responds to royal and governmental directives to upgrade foundational skills across the 2021–2026 period, while also reinforcing digital sovereignty by producing and hosting Moroccan educational content. Universities can integrate ELOGHA-SUP into general education requirements, remedial tracks, or targeted programs for internationalization, and instructors will be able to curate playlists and assign graded activities through their campus systems.
An evolving platform
ELOGHA-SUP is also designed to evolve. New modules, specialized glossaries, and sector-specific pathways are planned as faculties and schools contribute material and identify gaps. Partnerships with public institutions will help expand Amazigh content and certify levels needed for civil service, teaching, and healthcare jobs.
On the international side, the English and Spanish tracks will continue to add academic writing, research communication, and professional interview units to meet the needs of exchange students and dual-degree cohorts.
The launch in Dakhla underscores the platform’s national reach and the importance of bringing the same quality of tools to every region. By delivering standards-based pathways, inclusive design, and Moroccan-made content, ELOGHA-SUP aims to make language learning a shared infrastructure across campuses rather than a patchwork of isolated courses.
With deployment starting this academic year, universities are now onboarding students, training instructors, and aligning placement tests with the CEFR levels used in the platform.
As usage scales, the Ministry expects ELOGHA-SUP to raise baseline proficiency, reduce remediation costs for faculties, and give graduates the linguistic confidence they need to succeed in research, industry, and public service — at home and abroad.
