Clique Africa Employability Training Workshop and Internship Placement. APPLY

The issue of graduate unemployment in Nigeria has become a national concern as the unemployed youths tend to be more anxious, depressed and unhappy with their attendant sleeplessness than those with jobs. Studies have shown that there is wide chasm between graduate turnout and graduate employment and there appears to be wide chasm between the required skill set needed in today's work environment and that which most graduate leave school with. This picture is more worrisome especially when statistic shows that in Nigeria over 8million unemployed youth are readily applying for jobs where less than 500,000 are needed and amongst the 500,000 only 50,000 has the required skills, knowledge and personal attribute needed to meet the challenging needs of employers, a growing economy and the society at large; hence the need for a consistent employability skill training which takes into account the limited skills an average job seeker or even business owners possess and needs to get a job, retain a job or expand their businesses.
