The YES (Youth Employability Skills) Network will connect the supply and demand side of labor in Macedonia through various interventions in order to raise the quality of workers and connect them more readily to jobs. The project will build and extend the capacity of Vocational Education and Training (VET) schools and employment services agencies to improve the work readiness of VET students and unemployed youth; and to provide services and respond to changing market needs by linking the institutions and instructors to the private sector.
YES is an associate award under the EQUIP3: Learning and Earning for Out-of-School Youth program. Visit EDC’s International Development Division website for additional project information and resources.
