Article 1 of the Convention. Comprehensive and coordinated policies and programmes of vocational guidance and vocational training. In its report, the Government of French Polynesia refers to the adoption of 12 acts between 1 and 20 June 2018 on lifelong training amending the Polynesian Labour Code. The Committee notes with interest the adoption of these acts, and in particular those for the benefit of workers with disabilities and of jobseekers. The Committee also notes the broadening of the range of training available, the efforts made in relation to information on the training that is available and the statistics showing an overall increase in beneficiaries of training. The Committee invites the Government to continue providing information on the efforts made to improve the quality of training and statistics showing the impact of the training provided in terms of securing employment and upgrading skills, particularly for young people and disadvantaged groups, such as workers with disabilities.
Article 4 Improvement of the vocational training system for young people. The Committee notes the various measures taken to promote apprenticeships and to increase the number of apprentices. The Committee also notes the installation of a submarine cable to provide a high-speed Internet connection for the population of over 20,000 persons living on the Marquesas and Tuamotus Islands, combined with updates of the training courses available on the website of the Employment and Vocational Training Service (SEFI) and Facebook, thereby providing young people with better access to information. The statistics provided in the Government’s report also show an increase in the number of trainees in enterprises, with, for example the number of traineeships in enterprises rising by 26 per cent in 2016 in comparison with 2015. The Committee invites the Government to continue providing information on the efforts made to improve the quality of training for young people and the impact of the training, particularly through the provision of statistical data.
Article 4. Improvement of the vocational training system in remote islands. The Committee notes that the Adult Vocational Training Centre (CFPA) provides training courses on four geographical sites on two islands: Tahiti, for the sites of Pira’e, Puna’auia and Taravao; and the Island of Raiatea, for the site of that name. The Committee also notes that the SEFI contributes to the mission of the CFPA of facilitating vocational integration and the acquisition of vocational skills through the action of the various actors involved, namely the public service, communal authorities, private enterprise and associations. The SEFI is established on three islands: Mo’orea, with one site; Raiatea, with one site; and Pape’ete, with nine sites. The SEFI is also represented on the Marquesas, Austral, Tuamotus and Gambier archipelagos. The Committee notes that the SEFI does not have any establishments or representatives on the islands of Bora-Bora, Huahine and Taha’a. However, action has been developed by the SEFI with the associations of Rural Family Houses (MFR) in the islands of Taha’a and Huanine, as well as on other remote islands, as indicated by the Government’s report. The Committee invites the Government to continue its efforts on the remote islands for the improvement of vocational training and further training and to continue providing statistics, disaggregated by age and sex, where possible demonstrating the impact of the training provided.
