Graduates' perception on the role of the Para-university in their first access to the labour market
Abstract
The study aims to highlight the perceived benefits of these activities, such as the development of professional skills, expansion of social networks, and enhancement of professional self-confidence. Additionally, our research aims to explore the different challenges faced by students, including unequal access to extracurricular opportunities and institutional recognition of these experiences. This article explores Moroccan students' perceptions regarding the impact of extracurricular activities on their initial entry into the job market. Through a qualitative study, in-depth interviews were conducted with 1116 students from various disciplines and universities in Morocco. Finally, the article will propose recommendations to enhance support for extracurricular activities within the Moroccan context to improve graduates' employability and meet the evolving demands of the job market.
Keywords: Extracurricular activities, employability, job market, student perceptions.
