Every year, thousands of students graduate from our universities, colleges and educational institutions. And, every year, we hear the same issue raised by employers, that, essentially, they are not ready for the labour market.
On the other hand, educational institutions argue that their role is not just to fill up a mould and churn out employees prepared for the industry but it goes beyond that.
Of course, when looking through their optics, both sides are correct in their arguments.
Educational institutions are not only creating the workforce of today but they’re also preparing that of tomorrow. They have a sacred duty to analyse the local needs while also seeking among the four corners of the earth those innovations that will shape our existence in the coming decades.
