Africa-Press – Lesotho. In its recent meeting, the Cabinet decided to transfer the Youth Apprenticeship Program (YAP), which has been piloted by the Ministry of Finance to the Prime Minister’s office.
In his official speech, the Minister of Education and Training, Prof. Ntoi Rapapa said this program is aimed at equipping academically qualified and non-academic youth with temporary jobs across the country.
He added that such youth are being placed in different government ministries, private sector and in different community development projects. Prof. Rapapa, therefore, urged the youth to continue registering their names in their respective community councils across the country, saying this will ease the process of their enrolment in the program. The Youth Apprenticeship Program was implemented in January 2020 to tackle the rate of youth unemployment in the country.
