Vocational Training as Unemployment Solution
The Minister of Employment and Vocational Training, Riyad Shuud, stated that the employment rate of vocational training center graduates in the labor market reaches 100 percent. He clarified that vocational training is a successful pathway and a fundamental lever for integrating youth economically and socially, serving as a genuine alternative to combat unemployment. He added that the "Major Employers" program, which was launched in 2025, has resulted within just one year in the integration of over 17,000 young people into sectors such as automotive manufacturing, aviation, electronics, and electricity. The program encourages young people to connect with the National Employment Agency to seek assistance in finding jobs or financing projects. He also emphasized the importance of external job opportunities supported by cooperation agreements and mentioned that Tunisian competencies are increasingly appreciated due to the quality of training and professional experience.
