(VOV) -The Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union has provided occupational consulting services for more than 6.5 million young people and helped 1.5 million others gain employment.
In the 2008- 2011 period, the Union mobilized over VND12,480 billion sourced from the National Employment Fund and the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies (VBSP) and local organizations to support young people in pursuing their studies or starting businesses. More than 1.6 million youth members have so far enjoyed the Union’s mobilized preferential loans.
The Union also offered its members vocational training to help them look for jobs. As a result, nearly 960,000 young people attended vocational training courses, and hundreds of thousands of them were employed.
Participants at a two-day meeting of the Union’s Central Committee in Hanoi on June 29-30 emphasized the need to assist young people in vocational training and finding employment, and also encourage their creativity.
Job fairs and seminars on overseas employment and starting a career also opened up opportunities for Youth Union members to broaden their knowledge and find work.
Over the past five years, the number of young people taking part in vocational training nearly tripled and the number of young people who became employed nearly doubled to 1,516,158.
