Training Logics And Professional Integration Mechanisms Of Graduates Of Cameroonian Universities

This study answers the question of how university training logic accounts for the professional insertion of young higher education graduates in Cameroon. In this respect, qualitative research was carried out to analyze the logic of university training and the insertion of young higher education graduates in Cameroon. To understand the logic of university education in Cameroon, the research was addressed to a specific group of five (05) young graduates selected by applying the typical sampling technique. The data collected from five (05) participants from the University of Yaoundé 1 and processed using content analysis revealed that there is, on the one hand, a lack of information within the state universities; and, on the other hand, a lack of structuring of training programs and their evaluation. The results also show that trainers' encouragement of self-employment among young graduates is almost absent. This study, which is situated in a vocational training context, proposes to adopt accompanying measures in a social dynamic aimed at favoring the professional integration of university graduates, still in contrast with the segmentation of the labor market.
