Abstract

The study aimed to analyze the relationship between industrial technical education graduates and sustainable development in Egypt. The study used the descriptive approach to contribute to understanding and describing the main characteristics and features of the data set used in the study and to include descriptive analysis of the study variables, and analysis of the correlation between these variables. It also used the econometrics approach to derive linear regression equations to infer and predict the number of graduates using the population growth rate (to display technical education graduates), and it also used the targeted economic growth rate indicator to predict the number of graduating students during the study period. The study concluded that whenever the number of industrial technical education graduates increases by 1%, the adjusted savings rate that expresses sustainable development will increase by approximately 13%, meaning that there is a positive direct relationship between industrial technical education graduates and sustainable development in Egypt during the study period. The study recommended the necessity of adopting a clear strategic vision for graduates of industrial technical education that keeps pace with technological developments and mechanisms for dealing with them, in a way that works to achieve sustainable development. The study also recommended the necessity of the labor market contributing to drawing up the industrial education policy and directing it towards the skills and professions required by sustainable development in Egypt.
