Young people need to develop academic and strong life skills
Employers want work-ready young people with Can-Do attitudes
Business leaders globally are experiencing a growing gap between work expectations and job seekers' abilities. The biggest gap is in personal development skills, often referred to as soft or life skills, that are key to developing future leaders in business and government.

Now, because of advances in online technology designed by KnowledgeNow, we have developed YP2G as an online study program, turning E-Learning into E-Doing.
Neville Gaunt is an internationally experienced Finance professional at corporate and operational levels, a social entrepreneur and has 12 years experience in school governance.

Along with good technical understanding and subject knowledge, employers often outline a set of soft 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.
