The government is launching a new training program to help  college graduates find jobs.

The circular does not suggest a fixed length or pay scale of the training. But it says local government and organizations which provide training must offer basic living subsidies to the trainees.

The government says it will develop training bases for the program with responsible employers. China has over six million college students due to graduate this year. One million of  last year's graduates are still looking for jobs.
