Migrants in Sweden are getting a fast track to employment

Sweden has introduced a Fast Track program to quickly get migrants jobs in areas where there are a shortage of workers. Targeted at newcomers who already have skills and experience in areas of need, the program provides workplace training and language lessons, and creates a framework to recognise qualifications earned abroad. The training process leads to a job that fits participants' skills and qualifications. Programs are currently available for teachers, medical professionals, chefs, social workers and social scientists.
