Abstract

In this scientific approach, vocational training for the unemployed is addressed as an active labour market policy contributing to sustainable employment. In this context, the forms of vocational training in which the unemployed can be involved are presented, increasing their chances of employment. Vocational qualification and retraining courses, on-the-job training and vocational traineeships as types of vocational training are analysed in dynamics, in the case of the Republic of Moldova. In order to assess the overall situation of vocational training of the unemployed in the Republic of Moldova, statistical data were extracted from the annual reports of the National Employment Agency. A questionnaire was also used to determine the degree of involvement of companies in the vocational training of the unemployed. The survey included 350 companies in the Republic of Moldova. The results obtained from the questionnaire show that organizations have certain reluctance to participate in the process of vocational training of the unemployed. Similarly, the results show that the involvement of organisations in the process of training the unemployed does not depend on their location, or size, or field of activity.
