Stetieh said that the
ministry is facing several challenges resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic,
which increased unemployment to 25 percent. But he added that should not
prevent the existence of many job opportunities for Jordanian youth, inside and
outside of the Kingdom.
Under Royal
directives, he said, the focus is on arming Jordanian youth with the necessary
skills to help them find jobs.
Next week, five
technology-focused training centers will be inaugurated, he added.
The minister pointed
out that a vocational center in Marka will be using technology for training in
welding.
He urged parents to
point their children to technical jobs to help solve unemployment.
