Abstract: In recent years, there has been increasing discussion about the professional integration of graduates. Many graduates face difficulties in finding employment. In Morocco, as in other countries, the professional integration of graduates is a major concern in national development policies. In fact, most young graduates from educational institutions have difficulty finding employment. As a result, youth unemployment is one of the major problems facing economies. In Morocco, the emergence of vocational training centers aims to ensure a better match between the training of young people and the needs of the market. This training-employment match remains a subject of debate, as vocational training institutions prepare young people to enter the labor market and contribute to economic growth. The objective of this article is to assess the impact of vocational training on the employability of graduates. To do this, we used the propensity score matching method as a means of assessing the impact. To this end, we used the household panel survey conducted by the National Observatory for Human Development in 2023. This survey was carried out on a sample of 16,000 households in order to ensure that the results on human development were representative of the region. The results obtained are analyzed using the propensity score matching method via STATA software. They reveal a significant impact of vocational training on labor market integration. These results will be discussed on the basis of the issues raised in the literature review.
