POST-SECONDARY SCHOOL GUIDANCE 2026-2027: The Ministry Launches a National Campaign to Guide New High School Graduates
As high school graduation results open the door to higher education, the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (MESRS) is taking action. A large-scale national information and guidance campaign is being organized for the 2026-2027 academic year to help new graduates make strategic academic choices.
This initiative aims to clarify selection procedures, present the available training programs, and assist students in prioritizing their choices on official platforms.
The national tour will officially kick off on Thursday, July 30, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. in Amphitheater 100 on the Sogbo-Aliho Campus, at the National University of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (UNSTIM) in Abomey.
Following the official launch, delegations from the Ministry will be deployed to various departments to conduct direct discussions. Career opportunities, admission requirements for different programs, and the details of distance learning will be presented in these sessions.
To ensure optimal coverage of the territory, the guidance teams will meet with high school graduates according to the following schedule:
