A debate on the Challenges and Perspectives of the Labor Market in North Macedonia was held

"This is also a contribution of the academy to show that the labor market in North Macedonia is asymmetrical and we have said this warning at SEEU much earlier. The focus of universities and educational policies should be on the creation of professional staff, which the market requires", said in his opening remarks the Rector Acad. Prof. Dr. Abdylmenaf Bexheti.
