Many young people plan for search for well-paid jobs abroad after the graduation from the college. However when asked "Do you know well laws, languages and customs of other countries?" almost everyone at the training said "No". The participants neither knew enough about Ukraine's labor law. During the training, the participants learned the difference about a legal and illegal employment, and about the main rules of a safe travel abroad for employment. They also learned what a work contract is, how the law protects employees’ rights, and which guarantees are provided for graduates, if a young person cannot find a job immediately after the graduation.
