As part of the joint EPFL-UM6P initiative, "Excellence in Africa", the Centre EXAF-EPFL announced the first six successful candidates to host future Centres of Competence in Digital Education (C-CoDE).

In 2021 and 2022, the project will develop "hardware" and "software". A studio with multimedia equipment and IT infrastructure necessary to produce online courses (MOOC - Massive Open Online courses) will be constructed. Technicians from each university will then be trained to operate the production studios. Training in digital education will also be provided to resident experts in instructional design as well as a few dozen professors.
