Spring 2017 / Issue 53
Dear AmCham Macedonia members and friends -
Welcome to the spring 2017 edition of Am-
Cham Magazine. This issue highlights labor
market challenges in Macedonia, with insight-
ful contributions from a number of our very
talented member representatives in addition to
interviews with the Director of the Vocation-
al Education & Training Center and of USAID
Macedonia’s Youth Employability Skills Net-
work project. I hope you’ll find it informative
and useful.
You’ll see in the AmCham News section of
this issue just how busy we’ve been, organizing
gatherings on topics ranging from connecting
local suppliers with international companies;
business-university cooperation and; CSR best
practices. None of these activities would have
been possible without the impressive member
support and volunteerism that makes our orga-
nization unique.
While the country continues to grapple with
difficult political challenges this spring and
summer, AmCham will continue to serve its
members with networking and learning op-
portunities, including the continuation of our
Member to Member Learning Series. These ses-
sions have proven to be valuable educational and
promotional opportunities for our members.
AmCham hosts 1-2 such sessions per month
in its premises, recruits relevant attendees and
covers all logistics and related costs. Presenting
members just need to come prepared to share
their knowledge, strengthen their network and
build their brand. Please contact the Executive
Office if you’re interested!
