| Demand outlook | HRDC forecasts about 334 openings a year in EDUCATION & TRAINING (2025). 5,980 graduates in this field were recorded unemployed at 2024Q1, which at that rate is about 17.9 years of hiring to absorb the people already waiting — ACRON’s calculation from two HRDC figures, not an HRDC finding, and it counts only the existing pool. Graduates per opening: 8.32. About eight graduates a year for every forecast opening. These openings are a forecast of need, not posts that are currently being filled. In July 2026 the Directorate of Public Service Management told Parliament's Public Accounts Committee that government "currently do not have the financial capacity to create new vacancies", and that more than 8,000 students now graduate each year while the economy is no longer creating jobs at the same pace. Government policy reserves 80% of entry-level vacancies for new graduates and is achieving about 70%. (Directorate of Public Service Management, evidence to the 62nd sitting of the Public Accounts Committee, reported by Mmegi (July 2026).) This describes the whole field, not this programme alone, and it is not a government waiting list — Botswana publishes no such figure.
