The 'Talent Partnership' forum, organized by the Tunisian Ministry of Employment and Vocational Training in collaboration with the EU mission in Tunis, aims to present various programs and services available in vocational training and employment. The event, taking place on November 11, seeks to enhance awareness among job seekers, professionals, and economic institutions about employment and training opportunities, both locally and internationally.
The forum is part of the 'Talent Partnership' initiative launched in 2023 to develop cooperation between Tunisia and the EU in skills development and employability. The initiative focuses on addressing the needs of the national and European job markets for qualified skills. The forum will highlight available skills and specialties in the vocational training system and explore areas for organized professional mobility.
The event features three main sections: the job market and employment opportunities, vocational training and skills recognition, and organized professional mobility. These sections will provide information on promising economic sectors, required skills, and technical tools for exploring job opportunities. Participants can also learn about services for job seekers and procedures for obtaining certifications and recognition of acquired skills.
The forum's program includes presentations, discussions, and interactive sessions, allowing participants to obtain direct answers to their questions and learn about available official mechanisms. The event targets students, job seekers, trainees, vocational training graduates, and professionals interested in benefiting from legal mobility and return programs.
Specific economic sectors, such as transportation and logistics, tourism and hospitality, construction, agriculture, electrical industries, automotive and aviation, and renewable energy, will receive special attention during the forum. These sectors offer training and employment opportunities and respond to growing demands for skilled workers.
The 'Talent Partnership' program also involves updating and digitizing services provided by the National Employment and Independent Work Agency and the Tunisian Vocational Training Agency. The initiative aims to enhance the agencies' capabilities in monitoring job market needs and anticipating developments, particularly through supporting the National Observatory for Employment and Skills.
The forum reflects efforts to strengthen integration between the training and employment systems and develop Tunisian-European partnership in skills development. This partnership seeks to improve employability, facilitate access to decent work opportunities, and open up broader prospects for Tunisian skills to benefit from organized professional mobility.
