The revamped Tounes Ta3mal youth employability platform, an initiative of Doha-based Silatech and Microsoft aimed at benefiting Tunisian youth, was officially launched recently.
The launch took place in the presence of an audience of more than 150 job-seekers and students, along with representatives from career centres and universities, NGOs and the Ministry of Higher Education & Scientific Research.
The original Tounes Ta3mal (tounes.ta3mal.com) was launched in October 2013 by regional co-founders Silatech and Microsoft, connecting Tunisian youth with tools, resources, career guidance, training and job opportunities to help them launch careers and start businesses.
Version 2.0 of the platform offers a more complete end-to-end experience, which includes developing one’s career profile, access to career counselling online and in-person, e-learning courses, entrepreneurship training, advice on preparing a CV and job openings relevant to youth just starting their careers, along with a more accessible and easy-to-use interface, according to a statement.
Tounes Ta3mal project manager Mohamed Ali Chebaane said: “Tounes Ta3mal 2.0 provides greater usability, more localised Tunisian content and a wealth of rich new multimedia content.” launched
