Of these graduates of the last 4 years,82% continued their specialized studies towards a higher cycle(high/post-secondary school). Participants with disabilities today have practical professional experiences.The opportunity has developed their courage and perseverance,today they have the initiative,they are courageously oriented towards society. In the context of the pandemic and online courses,students did not benefit from effective practical training,so they did not acquire practical professional skills that would provide them with a solid basis for professional integration upon graduation.
