Since its creation in 1961, ENSEA has contributed to the training of more than 4,000 statisticians from African countries sharing the French, English and Portuguese languages. Since 1990, ENSEA has strengthened its research activities.
The quality of the training and the density of studies have successively earned it the label of WAEMU Regional Centre of Excellence in 2005 and the World Bank’s African Centre of Excellence (ACE) in 2015.
The activities of the “African Centre of Excellence (ACE)” are part of the ENSEA Strategic Plan, which is structured around four action plans.
L’ENSEA, Centre d’excellence lance un appel à candidature pour le recrutement de la deuxième cohorte d’étudiants en thèse de doctorat au titre de l’année académique 2019-2020.
ENSEA entry examination department informs candidates registered for the Statistician Analysts (AS) course examination that the pre-selection phase will take place on Saturday, March 7, 2020.
ENSEA’s doctoral program is organizing a doctoral seminar from March 16 to 20, 2020.
The Director of ENSEA of Abidjan led a panel on the evening of February 25 on student internships management within the framework of the workshops of the African Centre of Excellence (ACE) project.
ISSEA of Yaoundé, ENSAE of Dakar and AFRISTAT were selected as partners by ENSEA because of their common experience in the field of higher statistical training. Other academic and professional partners, particularly from the private sector and the research community, support the implementation of the various activities.
The various action plans aim to build ENSEA’s capacity in statistical training and research in order to ensure its long-term positioning as a regional reference centre. In this context, the creation of a Doctoral School in Applied Statistics and the development of distance learning will significantly contribute to its influence. These plans also include governance reforms aimed at ensuring greater ACE autonomy.
To achieve this objective, five activities will be implemented:
The objective of this second action plan is to create the conditions for establishing at ENSEA a reference research centre in statistics and applied economics to meet the methodological challenges faced by National Statistical Systems actors and to support decision-making. These include, among others :
The third action plan focusing on the Equity and Attractiveness Dimension is intended to increase the visibility and accessibility of ENSEA’s training offer to a greater number of students and lecturer-researchers in the sub-region. More specifically, it will be about:
(i) improving the living environment of students
(ii) strengthening English language learning
(iii) providing assistance to non-fellowship students
(iv) carrying out an accreditation process for diplomas
The fourth action plan focuses on management and governance. The activities of this plan are organized around the following :
(i) project governance
(ii) financial management
(iii) ENSEA government reform
(iii) implementation of a communication policy towards partners
(iv) provision of technical assistance to the African Institute of Statistics (AIS) and the National Statistical Institutes (NSIs)
