How to Develop and Upskill the Future Workforce at Scale

about

Over 40 million young people under the age of 30 enter the workforce every year, but many graduate without the skills necessary to become gainfully employed.

Nearly three in four young professionals feel formal education no longer guarantees them employment, and globally one in five are not employed, in education or training (NEET).

Accumulating more debt by going back to school to upskill their training isn’t a feasible option and corporations are left spending over $362 billion USD on corporate training initiatives worldwide.
