Navarre has the 2nd highest employment rate among its university students and higher vocational training graduates

3 de April de 2024

A report by the CYD Foundation has revealed that Navarre is the leader
in terms of employment and training in Spain. It has the second highest
employment rate among its graduates between 25 and 64 years of age, and the
lowest unemployment rate in the country.
This study shows that the higher educational level of the population
has, better are the employment activity rates. Navarra has almost 49% of its
adult population with higher studies, making it the third autonomous region
with the highest percentage, behind Madrid and the Basque Country. These
percentages exceed the national average (41%) and the European Union average
(34.3%).
While the percentage of the
population with post-compulsory non-tertiary education is between 20% in
Extremadura and 28% in the Balearic Islands, Navarre is at a mid-point with
23.5%, being 45.2% in Europe.
The communities with the best employment rates and lowest unemployment
rates are Navarre, La Rioja, Catalonia, Aragon and the BAC, with Navarre having
the lowest unemployment rate (4.23%), and the second highest employment rate
(86.9%), only behind La Rioja (87.5%).
Navarre occupies the first position in lifelong learning. Some 18% of
the adult population (between 25 and 65 years of age) take some type of study
or course to complement their training, a percentage that exceeds the state
average by three percentage points.
