Problem Statement of “The Skilled Workforce: Youth Skill Training And Employment Preparation” Project
Young people in Buea struggle to find jobs because their schooling doesn’t match what employers need. Even with diplomas, many lack the practical skills and work habits to succeed in a tough job market. This problem gets worse because they don’t have enough guidance or mentors to help them prepare for real-world work.
The main problem is that young people don’t learn the right skills in school to meet job market needs. Companies find it hard to hire workers who have both the technical know-how and the people skills needed to do well at work. What’s more, there aren’t enough specific training programs or mentors to help young people grow important traits. Things like being disciplined, staying consistent, and having a good work ethic are key to building a strong career over time.
To tackle these issues, we suggest a project that aims to develop skills by rolling out training programs in fields with high demand, like IT and project management. We’ll set up a game-changing mentorship program to instil professional attitudes and work ethics in young people making sure they’re better prepared for the job market. What’s more, we’ll team up with companies and institutions to help place trained youths in jobs, which will make it easier for employers to find qualified candidates. We’ll put special focus on supporting young women between 15 and 25 making sure they have equal chances in training and employment.
The Skilled Workforce: Youth Skill Training And Employment Preparation project has the goal to cut joblessness, boost job readiness, and build a skilled workforce that can push economic growth in Buea. But if we don’t tackle this skills gap, we’ll keep seeing high unemployment rates. This will hold back young people from adding to the economy and lead to wasted talent. Businesses will have a hard time finding qualified workers, which will slow their growth and hurt the community’s overall progress.
Our plan tackles the pressing need to build skills while also helping young people grow in all areas. We set up mentoring to change how they think and work. We team up with employers to make sure we teach skills the job market wants so our approach works in the real world and makes a difference. If we don’t step in, young people in Buea women will keep facing big roadblocks to getting jobs. This keeps the cycle of poverty going and stops many from reaching their full potential. By focusing on this group, we want to lift up a whole generation and lay the groundwork for lasting economic growth
