REDEFINING THE ROLE OF EDUCATION IN EMPLOYMENT DEVELOPING THE FUTURE WORKFORCE
WHY TALK ABOUT EDUCATION AND THE FUTURE WORKFORCE • Environment is changing • Success is not permanent • Old rules no longer apply • Need to ADAPT, LEARN, & BE CREATIVE in order to succeed
The Unemployed • Unemployed are mostly young, unskilled, inexperienced, males, in the urban areas • Youth accounts for almost half of total unemployed • Spent more years in college than the employed • Incidence of unemployment tends to increase with years of education
Driving Graduate Unemployment • failure in the examination or interview • poor communication skills; • residence of the applicant is far from the jobsite; • lack of extensive work experience; and • inconsistency in the submitted information and documents vis-à-vis claims of the applicants.
