Thursday, a working meeting on the state of preparations for the validation of candidates for State exams, between Meniol Jeune, the Director General of the Ministry of National Education and heads of entities involved in the State exams unfolded with great concern. In question, the delays accumulated at the level of the Departmental Directorates of the Center and Artibonite, due to a persistent strike movement of some employees for several weeks.

The future of several thousand candidates is threatened by the systematic refusal of collaboration of these employees while the Department has already responded to the main expectations of salary alignment of those concerned. And that the file follows its course at the Ministry of Finance pointed Meniol Jeune, recalling that these employees continue to collect their salary monthly without providing the service for which they are paid. He indicated that actions will be considered if the employees in question do not come to their senses to facilitate the return to normal and unblock the process of registration of candidates.

In addition : the communication to be continued around the new dates of the official exams, the awareness campaign to be carried out around the provisions relating to the renovated Secondary and the subjects, subject of examinations in New Secondary 4 (NS4), the date to communicate for the early tests in NS3 were the other agenda items discussed during this working session.
