Article 1 of the Convention. Formulation and implementation of education and training policies. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in June 2011. The Government indicates that coordination of national policy for employment and vocational training is the responsibility of the Central African Agency for Vocational Training and Employment (ACFPE), which conducts analysis in enterprises in order to identify training and employment needs. The ACFPE draws up the training programme on the basis of the requirements indicated by the enterprises. The Government also indicates its awareness of the need to take steps to encourage and assist all persons, on an equal basis and without any discrimination whatsoever, to develop and use their capabilities for work in their own best interests and in accordance with their own aspirations. It indicates that a project is under way and that the poverty reduction strategy paper (PRSP) takes account of the strengthening of this component. The Committee invites the Government to provide information in its next report on the results of the ACFPE training programmes. It again invites the Government to indicate how a close link is ensured between, on the one hand, the ACFPE training programmes and the measures taken as part of the poverty reduction strategy and, on the other hand, employment and the employment services (Article 1(1–4) of the Convention). Please also provide information on the operation and impact of measures being implemented and all progress achieved.

Article 2. The Government refers in its report to the assistance from the Organisation internationale de la francophonie. It indicates that a national team responsible for the development of training techniques has been established. A number of workshops have also been held on this subject. The Committee invites the Government to supply information in its next report on the results of the work of the national team responsible for the development of training techniques, indicating to what extent this work has contributed to the establishment and development of open, flexible and complementary systems of general, technical and vocational education, educational and vocational guidance and vocational training.

Article 3. Information for vocational guidance purposes. The Committee notes that the Government is awaiting the results of the work of the Employment and Training Forum to take steps to extend its systems of vocational guidance and ongoing information on employment. The Committee invites the Government to supply detailed information in its next report on the specific measures taken to ensure the provision of comprehensive information and the broadest possible guidance, especially for children and young people and, through appropriate measures, for persons with disabilities. Please also describe the type of information available for vocational guidance purposes and the way in which this information is kept up to date, and to supply copies of the available documentation.

Article 4. Lifelong training. The Committee notes that apprenticeships and work–study programmes are the means referred to by the Government to ensure the adaptation and harmonization of vocational training to the changing needs of individuals and of the economy and the various branches of economic activity.
