Social Insurance Diploma

First introduced by the Muhanna Foundation in Amman, Jordan in November 2006, The Social Insurance Diploma trains professionals to contribute to the development and sustainability of social protection tools in an evolving Arab World, thus meeting the growing regional demand for technical and scientific training in social protection and pension-related issues.

SID Mission

Social protection is all around us and touches the lives of all citizens and residents from children to elderly. Individuals, families and societies are affected by different kinds of social protection risks. The design of viable social protection strategies to reduce poverty and to offer the residents of developing countries an acceptable level of protection against shocks and risks is of utmost importance for economic growth and stability.

Our mission is to provide the participants with the knowledge, skills and trends they need in Social Security and Pensions, to continue to be an active leader in capacity building on both the regional and international levels.

The SID program fills the gaps in standard academic teaching and goes beyond. This means that actual case studies and discussions are an essential part of teaching, while the participants are also given a solid theoretical background in social protection.

The contents of the SID focus on recent insights from the academic theory and research as well as on policy problems and solutions. The lecturers interact with the participants and engage in debates.
