Applied Sciences and Labor Authorities to host Career Pathways Employment Forum on the 24th

Kuwait – The Public Authority for Applied Education and Training announced that it will host the “Employment Pathways” forum in collaboration with the Public Authority for Manpower on November 24 and 25, as part of efforts to strengthen institutional partnerships between government entities and the private sector and to intensify initiatives aimed at empowering Kuwaiti youth and opening new avenues for their participation in the labor market.

In a press release issued on Sunday, the Authority stated that organizing the forum reflects both parties’ commitment to building direct communication bridges between educational and training institutions and labor market entities, and to aligning the outputs of education and training with the private sector’s needs for national specialties, skills, and competencies, thereby supporting employment opportunities for Kuwaiti youth and enhancing their contribution to economic development.

The Authority added that the forum, to be held at the Central Library at the Authority’s headquarters in Shuwaikh, aims to provide a national platform that brings together private sector companies and institutions with students, graduates, and job seekers. This platform will enable participating entities to showcase available job and training opportunities, receive resumes, and conduct direct job interviews, thereby enhancing the prospects of attracting and actually employing national talent.

It emphasized that this partnership represents an important step toward strengthening integration between the education and training and employment systems, and consolidating the role of the private sector as a key partner in attracting national talent and providing genuine job opportunities for Kuwaiti youth.

The Authority called on private sector companies and institutions to actively participate in the forum and contribute to achieving its objectives by providing job opportunities, thereby fostering sustainable partnerships and supporting the building of a promising professional future for national talent.
