The National Institute of Posts and Telecommunications (INPT) (in Arabic: المعهد الوطني للبريد و المواصلات, in Amazigh: ⴰⵙⵉⵏⴰⴳ ⴰⵏⴰⵎⵓⵔ ⵏ ⵜⵙⴰⵡⴰⵢⵜ ⴷ ⵓⵎⵢⴰⵡⴰⴹ), located in Rabat, the administrative capital of Morocco, is one of the leading engineering schools in Morocco. It is affiliated with the ANRT and offers versatile training in the field of information and communication technologies. Since 2008, the institute has been a member of the Conférence des grandes écoles françaises (CGE), and is often referred to as Télécom Rabat, associating it with similar schools in France (Télécom Paris, Télécom Sud-Paris, Télécom Bretagne).[2]

The institute was established in 1961 to train middle management in the fields of post, telecommunications, and audiovisual media.
In 1979, it was established as a higher education institution and in 1991, due to the increased demand for resources in the ICT sector, it introduced an engineering cycle.
Statutorily, it was attached to the former ONPT in 1984. With the adoption of law 24-96, the school was attached to the Agence nationale de réglementation des télécommunications (ANRT).
Currently, it provides training in computer science and telecommunications.
INPT's primary mission is to train engineers and senior executives in the field of high information and communication technologies. To support the changes in the telecommunications sector, particularly its liberalization and opening to competition and private participation, and to provide the latter with highly qualified skills, it has implemented several actions focused on three main areas:
To accomplish these missions, the institute relies on a permanent faculty of teacher-researchers and trainers, as well as a network of temporary staff from academia and industry professionals in the information technology sector. In this context, it also has a set of laboratories equipped with constantly updated didactic and professional equipment and a state-of-the-art computer network connecting its various laboratories and rooms.
The core activity of INPT is engineering training. The INPT has participated in the development of programs for new training institutions, both nationally and internationally.[citation needed]
As such, the number of engineering students has seen significant growth. It is expected to increase to 120 engineers per year over the next two years to reach 200 engineers per year starting in 2007.[3][needs update]
Training programs evolve every year to align with the information and telecommunications technology sector, both technically, economically and legally. In this sense, in the third year, a new specialization in components for telecommunications systems was introduced in 2003, and two other specializations, one in enterprise telecommunications management and the other for project managers, were introduced in 2005. The teaching of economics and languages has been revised to match the realities of globalization (the TOEIC test has become mandatory since 2004).[citation needed]
As for the integration of INPT graduates, it occurs in various types of companies: national, international, public, and private.[citation needed]
According to a guide published by La Vie éco (LVE), the employment rate of institute graduates stands at 68% three months after graduation and 98% one year after graduation in 2016.[4]
Most of the national university programming competitions are marked by the strong presence of the institute's disciples (known as Inptists).
INPT is also well represented in international programming competitions, such as the Imagine Cup by Microsoft and the ACM in North Africa and Arab countries. It was also represented at the International Youth Congress, organized by Peace Child International, and the Moroccan Youth Forum, held in Casablanca in 2003.
In addition to the Horizons Telecoms association of institute graduates, engineering students have several clubs: AEINPT (student association), CIT (Computing and Telecommunications Club), and CESE (Electronics and Embedded Systems Club).
INPT has its Junior-Enterprise: A2S (Actions Services and Solutions). It is a non-profit association whose purpose is to create bridges between the professional world and the students of the school.
During the 2009 graduation ceremony, the Director General of ANRT, Azzeddine El Mountassir Billah, specified that the agency is working to establish the Soft Centre, a software development center, which is scheduled to start in 2009 at INPT, before its final installation at the Casa Technopolis site. He also noted during the same ceremony that the 2009–2010 academic year would be labeled Quality and that INPT would undertake the necessary steps to be accredited by the French Commission des titres d'ingénieurs (CTI) to enhance its visibility at European and international levels.[5]
