To overcome the lack of specialists in dry land farming, sustainable management of natural resources in arid regions and combating desertification, IRA develops various activities of training :

- Advanced training courses.

- Supervision of students (graduation and post graduation).

- In addition, IRA contributes actively to the implementation of two master degree programs :  

- The joint IRA/INAT national master degree program on “techniques of combating desertification and natural resources management in the dry region. This   program started in October 2001,

- The joint IRA/UNU/CAS/INAT/Totturi University/ICARDA international master degree program on « integrated land management in drylands ». This program started in April 2005.
