Introduction

This 3 days course on Employability Skills provides participants with the necessary Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes needed to either acquire paid or self-employment using the available few resources around. The training seeks to enable young men and women identify the available opportunities around them which can be turned into opportunities for either self-employment or paid employment.  The Employability Skills Course is designed to provide young men and women with the foundational skills and knowledge necessary to reach their personal and professional goals, gain work exposure and experience, find work or start their own business, and develop healthy work habits and behaviors that will help one be successful. It is evident that, Universities, Colleges and other academic institutions neither teach us how to create our own jobs nor find and keep work. This course will be a practical solution to this problem.
