The Cairo Education Authority and the Ministry of Finance have initiated a two-day training program titled "Recent Updates in Implementing the Payroll System." The program, which started on October 5, 2026, aims to provide technical support to Payroll system officials in the Cairo Education Authority and its affiliated educational administrations. The training focuses on updating participants on the latest developments, regulations, and financial rules governing the Payroll system.
The Payroll system is a centralized electronic system launched by the Egyptian government to mechanize and unify the preparation and management of salaries and entitlements for employees in the state's administrative apparatus. The system aims to eliminate human intervention and ensure efficient financial management. The training program is a collaborative effort between the Cairo Education Authority and the Ministry of Finance to enhance the performance of financial personnel and address challenges.
The program features a range of important topics, including updates on the Payroll system, implementation stages, and responsibilities of each function. Participants discuss the review of financial allocations, common application problems, and solutions. The training also covers procedures for disbursing employee entitlements and the role of Form 50 in light of the financial regulations and the Unified Public Finance Law.
Dr. Hamt Ismail Abu Kila, Director of the Cairo Education Authority, welcomed participants and expressed gratitude to Dr. Ahmed Khaled Shriet, Deputy Minister and Director of the Financial Directorate, for his ongoing support. Dr. Abu Kila emphasized the importance of continuous training and capacity building for specialized cadres to overcome obstacles and achieve financial discipline.
Dr. Ahmed Khaled Shriet, Director of the Financial Directorate, stressed that all employees in the financial system are partners in providing services to citizens. He emphasized the need for effective communication between financial officials and representatives of the Ministry of Finance to facilitate and expedite disbursement procedures. The training program aims to identify problems, discuss solutions, and achieve integration among all parties in the financial system.
The program has attracted a range of participants, including financial and accounting officials from the Cairo Education Authority and its affiliated educational administrations. Trainers include experts from the Ministry of Finance, such as Dr. Ahmed Suleiman and Dr. Niveen Aziz. The Cairo Education Authority plans to continue organizing workshops and training sessions to address various topics and regulations governing financial work.
