Skills, Employability & Entrepreneurship Programmes
Our programme-delivery practice for donors, NGOs, government agencies and corporate CSR partners — consolidating training, youth employability, entrepreneurship and job connection into one accountable delivery partner. We've trained over 50,000 young people to date, with a consistent focus on measurable outcomes — placement, income and enterprise growth — not just attendance.
What’s included
5 core service lines under skills, employability & entrepreneurship programmes.
Structured training in soft skills and workplace readiness — CV writing, interview coaching, workplace etiquette and communication — paired with active job-placement support, not just a certificate at the end. Delivered at scale for donor and government-funded youth programmes, with over 50,000 young people trained to date.
Practical training in business ideation, planning, financial literacy, record-keeping and market access — backed by ongoing mentorship, not a one-off workshop. Built for first-time entrepreneurs, market women and youth-led micro-businesses who need support that continues after the training ends.
One-on-one career coaching and talent profiling to help young people identify realistic, well-matched career paths, paired with direct linkage to internship and apprenticeship opportunities with our employer partners. We track outcomes, not just attendance.
End-to-end design and implementation of youth, women, SME and livelihood programmes on behalf of donors, government agencies and corporate CSR partners — from programme logic and curriculum design through field delivery, monitoring and reporting. Delivered for funders including SOS Children's Villages, Mastercard Foundation and AGRA.
Active employer engagement and job-matching that connects trained youth to real internships, apprenticeships and enterprise opportunities — closing the loop between training and actual employment outcomes. We maintain relationships with employer partners specifically so placement isn't left to chance.
