The Public Authority for Applied Education and Training (PAAET) announced its collaboration with the Public Authority for Manpower (PAM) to organize the “Career Pathways Employment Fair,” scheduled for November 24 and 25, 2026, at the Central Library located at the Authority’s headquarters in Shuwaikh. This initiative aims to strengthen institutional partnerships between government entities and the private sector, intensify efforts to empower Kuwaiti youth, and open new avenues for their participation in the labor market.
In a press statement, the Authority noted that organizing the fair reflects both parties’ commitment to building direct communication bridges between educational and training institutions and labor market entities, and enhancing the alignment of educational and training outcomes with the private sector’s needs for national specialties, skills, and competencies. This contributes to supporting employment opportunities for Kuwaiti youth and enhancing their role in economic development.
The Authority added that the fair aims to provide a national platform that brings together private sector companies and institutions with students, graduates, and job seekers. It allows 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 talents.
It was pointed out that the fair includes workshops and specialized events on qualification, professional development, and career guidance, alongside a track that brings together private sector representatives with colleges, institutes, and scientific departments within the Authority. This facilitates identifying current and future labor market needs and utilizing them to develop and introduce new educational and training programs and specialties.
The Authority emphasized that this partnership represents an important step toward enhancing integration between the education, training, and employment systems, and consolidating the role of the private sector as a key partner in attracting national talents and providing real job opportunities for Kuwaiti youth.
The Authority called on private sector companies and institutions to actively participate in the fair and contribute to achieving its objectives by providing job opportunities and conducting direct interviews with graduates, thereby strengthening sustainable partnerships and supporting the building of a promising professional future for national talents.
