Episode 1: Education system and the world of work
In our May edition, host Justice Onwuka is joined by his fellow consultants to discuss whether the education system is truly reflective of the world of work today. With the number of young people not in education, employment, or training (NEETS) increasing, what can we do to unlock this ’lost’ talent?
We also explore the LinkedIn ‘Skills on the Rise’ report with a game of country skills bingo! What skill rates on the USA’s list, but not on the UK’s?
