China Expands Subsidized Training To Create Jobs

China's draft Government Work Report, submitted to the National People's Congress on March 5, sets an annual target to create more than 12 million urban jobs and to roll out over 10 million subsidized training opportunities this year. The report aims to keep the surveyed urban unemployment rate around 5.5 percent and allocates more than 12.4 trillion yuan for education, social security, and employment to help workers adapt to AI and automation.
