The Jusoor Professional Development Program was launched to support Syrian youth in finding work opportunities outside of Syria that align with their talent and skills. The program started in 2012 with the influx of Syrians to neighboring countries and the Gulf where they found themselves unable to join the job market due to the difference in application processes and lack of skills that were required in the workplace.
The program offers workshops that focus on career counseling, CV writing, and job interviewing skills to young Syrians, and has grown to include English language training for adults as means to better position them in the job market and professional training for teachers and teachers-to-be. Additionally, it provides a service and learning opportunity to young people around the world who wish to volunteer with Jusoor’s Refugee Education Program in Lebanon.
