Who We Are and What We Do:
The Skills Gap in Cambodia can render graduates unready and under-skilled for the workforce. Employers are unable to find employees with sufficient skills. Institutions, organizations, and companies face its consequences but also capable of limiting them.
The members of the IBC Education Working Group are education professionals committed to addressing the skills gap, which deeply impacts on both employers and young Cambodians.
We believe by examining the pre-employment situation (cause) and the resulting under-skilled workforce (symptoms) we can identify practical solutions and assist our members in implementing them.
Agenda:
Our current initiatives include:
- Pathways 2 Employment – internship and apprenticeship initiative designed to give young Cambodians an opportunity to experience the workplace and learn & apply new skills which will make them more work-ready.
- Private Sector / Educational Institution Dialogue – regular roundtable discussions between the private sector and educational institutions to improve communication, collaboration and in relation to the current skills required in the workplace.
- Career Guidance – pilot initiative to improve Young Cambodians’ understanding of the workplace and to support them to make better decisions when selecting their career path.
- Regular Education networking and informative events – designed to build more connections between the education and private sectors.
