Vocation or Profession?: Young people encouraged to choose according to market needs

Those in charge of vocational education say Armenian youth and their parents give preference to higher educational institutions, disregarding the fact that the job market has higher demand for craftsmanship and middle vocational school alumni.

"All parents want their children to acquire higher education, but they have to understand there is one manager or director and hundreds of laborers. In order to keep that proportion so many young people should not go to universities," Vahagn Khachatryan, in charge of educational projects at RA Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said during his Tuesday press conference.
