The TNE Employability Training supported participants with the skills, knowledge and confidence to search for decent work opportunities that aligned with their personal goals and interests. This allowed them to present themselves as productive employees, and succeed once in the role. Over 6,700 young people participated in the employability track across 7 locations in 3 countries.
Approach
The Employability training package went beyond the basics of job searching and workplace skills to include understanding personal strengths and corresponding work possibilities, effective communication, workers’ rights, and time management. Training was provided by local employment service providers with linkages to the job market and knowledge of what employers are looking for. The programme was complemented with training guides, presentation materials, and student templates. The Employability training package was delivered through twelve weekly sessions (2-3 hours each) and was supported by coaching, links to businesses, and on-the-job learning via internships.
