Your Passport 2 Grow (YP2G)

Learning Re-Imagined!

Your Passport 2 Grow — changing the lives of young people

 

  1. Purpose: to help young people develop the right attitude and skills to improve their employability.
  2. What skills? There are two types of skills employers want
    1. knowledge, your technical expertise
    2. soft skills, how you operate, your attitudes and behaviours
  3. With years of experience helping young people, YP2G is uniquely designed to help you develop these important soft skills. And what's more these are not just work related skills, they are skills for life!
  4. We help you understand yourself, who you are and how you do things. When you know who you are you're in a great place to know what you need to do to be a Can-Do person, the person that employers really want.
  5. When you start our process, you will quickly realise that not only don't employers want Can't-Do and Won't-Do people, you won't want to be that person either! Having a Can-Do attitude is so much more fun and exciting and it's where successful people operate.
  6. Why YP2G? There is a global problem that needs fixing. Young people gain some of these skills and academic qualifications from the education system, however many employability skills are not taught or developed. You may have had years of training doing Maths but how many of you have had lessons every week on Communication, Teamwork, Negotiation? So YP2G will help you identify what's needed and take you on a journey of improvement. Why improvement? That's easy, because you already do all of these skills in everyday life — we'll show you how to do them better.

STEM(STEAM)

Employability Skills can be defined as the transferable skills needed by an individual to make them 'employable'. Along with good technical understanding and subject knowledge, employers often outline a set of skills that they want from an employee. These skills are what they believe will equip the employee to carry out their role to the best of their ability. Employability depends on your knowledge, skills and attitudes, how you use those assets, and how you present them to employers.

At YP2G, we have taken Top 10 identified Employability Skills, researched by STEMNET (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Network) which confirms what employers look for in potential employees — that means you!

In this section we take you through different scenarios related to these 10 skill sets and present the consequence based on your given answers to further deal with a subsequent scenario. The journey of going through these scenario based assessments would itself be a learning process to ultimately give you the required paradigm towards building a right attitude!
