Change happens fast in the world of work, driven by innovation and by developments in technology and markets. The active participation of employers’ and workers’ representatives in vocational education and training institutions is essential to bridging this gulf (International Labour Force, November 2010).
Recognising the importance of vocational training and competency in soft skills to increase employability, STEP incorporates a mixture of classroom sessions and workplace challenges to support underprivileged youth aged 16 and above to make informed career-related decisions, in preparation for independence adulthood.
