MCIT Future Skills Program
Offers MCIT Future Skills Program, supporting Saudi digital skills development through scholarships, talent cultivation, and industry-aligned upskilling.
MCIT Future Skills Program is the ministry's national digital-talent umbrella, built to strengthen Saudi skills across training, scholarships, cooperative learning, and future-ambassador tracks. It is a long-running public initiative and has supported 188,000 beneficiaries to date. The grants strand is tied to scholarships and financial support for master's degrees and diplomas in emerging technologies, usually through university partnerships. The same umbrella also covers general training, cooperative training with public and private partners, and the Future Ambassadors track. As of the May 2026 fetch, the grants page showed no active grants and the calendar listed no upcoming events or trainings. That makes the program more useful as a standing talent platform than as an open funding call. Applicants who are looking for a live grant window need to watch for the next cycle, while learners and partner institutions can still use the broader training and partnership tracks. The fit is clearest for individuals in Saudi Arabia who want structured digital-skills support rather than a company grant.
