YEP MED organises training in Port Community Logistics in Beirut

The first course of the year organised in the Beirut Community will focus on the introduction of the concepts of Port Logistics to vocational students coming from local training institutes.

The course will provide first-year students of International Trade and those studying Transport and Logistics at training centres in the Beirut area with first-hand knowledge of the Port of Beirut, its infrastructures, logistics equipment and operations. It will also allow companies in the sector, through the associations, to make the characteristics of their activities and the professional profiles they need to develop appropriately known to the young members of the community.

The overall goal of the YEP MED courses is to encourage exchanges between training centres and companies, and to motivate companies to hire students in dual training programmes, therefore lowering the unemployment rate and encouraging youth occupations.
