World Youth Skills Day
Last night ,as we celebrated World Youth Skills Day ,following our interview of Ruth (a young lady that plays the violin as her means of livelihood),it was a sad discovery for me ( as a podcaster for THE BOW), that the education system in Nigeria leaves you with only knowledge and doesn't empower you with skills to move unto sustainable livelihood.Hence ,a lot of Nigerian graduates are unemployed.
The biggest barrier to develop the skills needed to pursue your career aspirations in Nigeria are:
A. Don't know what skills I need.
B.Can't afford training.
C. Can't access training.
D.No professional role models.
E.Family expectations to focus on other things.
It is very important that for us to achieve our career goals and have great skills that will make us have Sustainable Livelihoods,we MUST:
A. Access to relevant online resources.
B. Job-ready skills programmes in school.
C. Access to on-the-job training
