This joint study on the contribution of support structures to the self-employment of young people stems from the fact that the Burkinabè education system returns graduates each year in search of employment and the number is only increasing year by year. This study aims to assess the impacts of support structures for the self-employment of young people. The human capital theories of Gary (1992), the referentialization theory (ICP) of Figari (1994) and that of Paul Arthur Fortin the measure d served as a basis for this study. The non-probabilistic method and the reasoned choice followed by the non-probabilistic random method made it possible to identify 170 subjects as a sample. The results obtained through this methodology reveal that technical support allows young people to acquire entrepreneurial skills (88.05% business plan preparation and 87.42% in business management) and financial support promotes creation companies (66.67% have created their companies.). This study has shown the importance of the contribution of entrepreneurial support structures, as non-formal education devices to the self-employment of young people.

Abstract
This joint study on the contribution of support structures to the self-employment of young people stems from the fact that the Burkinabè education system returns graduates each year in search of employment and the number is only increasing year by year. This study aims to assess the impacts of support structures for the self-employment of young people. The human capital theories of Gary (1992), the referentialization theory (ICP) of Figari (1994) and that of Paul Arthur Fortin the measure d served as a basis for this study. The non-probabilistic method and the reasoned choice followed by the non-probabilistic random method made it possible to identify 170 subjects as a sample. The results obtained through this methodology reveal that technical support allows young people to acquire entrepreneurial skills (88.05% business plan preparation and 87.42% in business management) and financial support promotes creation companies (66.67% have created their companies.). This study has shown the importance of the contribution of entrepreneurial support structures, as non-formal education devices to the self-employment of young people.
