WorldSkills Algeria 2025 brought vocational excellence into the national spotlight. In Oran, 550 competitors from all 58 wilayas demonstrated their skills across six professional sectors. More than 30,000 visitors attended, giving young talent a public stage on which their work could be seen, recognized and celebrated.
Behind that public moment was a complex experience to organize. Competitors, juries, institutional guests, foreign delegations, media and visitors needed to find their place within the same event, across different venues and with different requirements.
Alongside the Ministry of Vocational Training and Education teams, we worked on the official visual charter and contributed to strategic planning, registration, accreditation, check-in and access. Our role connected the event’s public identity to the practical experience of the people taking part.
The 2025 edition
A national gathering of talentInside the story
Giving the ambition a visual language
WorldSkills Algeria needed an identity that could express a national ambition within an established international framework.
We developed the official visual charter, working within the WorldSkills brand guidelines while giving the Algerian edition its own expression. The work included an edition logo and several key visual proposals, exploring how the event could present itself coherently across its materials.
This required attention to both recognition and application. The identity had to work in an institutional setting and remain clear on the everyday supports through which people would encounter the event.
The charter established a shared reference for that work. It connected the ambition to a recognizable visual language, while the graphic explorations gave the committee concrete directions to consider. Its practical application extended to identification materials, including badges adapted to the different categories of people taking part.



Designing one journey for different publics
A competitor arriving at the residential village, a jury member entering the competition venue and an official guest attending the ceremony encounter different parts of an event. The national final followed local and regional qualifying rounds involving more than 8,000 participants.
We approached the mission through those journeys. The work began by identifying the audiences, their roles, the information required from them and the access they would need.
We contributed to the organizational plan and project timeline, connecting registration, accreditation, check-in and the interfaces with other flows, including catering. A media plan was also prepared and submitted to the committee.
This planning gave the work a sequence: what needed to happen before arrival, what teams had to prepare, and how the different stages would connect on site. The aim was to make a complex organization easier to navigate for participants and easier to operate for the teams welcoming them.

Connecting registration, accreditation and access
The participant journey needed a digital structure that could carry information from preparation into delivery.
We developed a dedicated registration page for the WorldSkills Algeria website, integrating the form through which people could pre-register. A connected Eventers platform centralized registrations, supported profile validation and generated individual QR codes and badges.
The accreditation system addressed different access needs. A dedicated badge covered entry to the official ceremony, while named badges identified people by category across the event. Competitors, juries, organizers, technical teams, guests and other audiences could be distinguished within a common system.
We also supervised badge production and distribution. The digital work therefore extended into the physical materials used at reception and access points.
Together, the registration tools and badge system gave the teams a practical connection between the person expected before the event and the person arriving in front of them.

Preparing the people who would make it work
The quality of the experience also depended on the people using the tools. With more than 300 volunteers mobilized across the wider event, clear instructions and shared procedures mattered.
We prepared multilingual guides for staff and volunteers, setting out the procedures for check-in, QR-code scanning, printing and badge distribution. These materials translated the digital system into instructions that could be followed at a reception desk.
Training supported that preparation. Teams and volunteers were introduced to the platforms and operational procedures so they could understand the sequence of actions and their role within it.
The work brought together the tools, the instructions and the people responsible for applying them. It gave the different teams a common reference as operations moved between locations and audiences.
For participants, these preparations became visible through ordinary encounters: finding the right desk, receiving the appropriate badge and being directed toward the next stage of their visit. Those moments were part of how the event’s professionalism would be experienced.

The deployment extended across the Mediterranean Village, the Olympic Hall and the Centre des Conventions d’Oran.
Our teams handled equipment installation and testing, then supported and supervised the registration, badging and check-in operations within our scope. Computers, professional printers and technical support were deployed to make the system usable where people were arriving.
The sequence followed the event’s changing needs. Badge distribution began with the people staying at the Village. Additional arrangements supported official guests and other ceremony audiences. At the competition venue, QR-code scanning supported the check-in of participants and teams.
This required continuous coordination with the wider organizing teams, alongside adjustments as lists and operational requirements evolved.
Much of the work happened through small decisions: checking information, preparing a station, distributing the right badge or clarifying the next step. Across intense days and complex coordination, those decisions helped connect the planned journey to the experience on the ground.




What changed
WorldSkills Algeria gave vocational talent a national platform on which to be seen, assessed and celebrated. At the closing ceremony, 132 competitors received awards for their work.
Our contribution supported that ambition through a recognizable identity and a structured participant experience. The visual charter gave the event a shared reference. Registration and accreditation tools connected preparation to arrival. Guides, training and on-site coordination brought those systems into practice.
The final report documented the deployment, its operational lessons and recommendations for future editions, leaving a clearer basis on which to develop the experience further.
For members of our own team whose careers began in vocational training, the project also had a personal meaning. The skills being celebrated were connected to pathways they knew, and to the foundations of their own creative careers.
The wider story was about the place vocational excellence can occupy in Algeria’s imagination. We contributed to the identity and practical structure through which that ambition could meet its public.
