For young people who have limited access to formal employment opportunities, this difference can be significant. Without job-oriented training, even educated youth can find it difficult to enter the workforce or identify a sustainable way to earn a livelihood.
This is the gap that CHORD addresses through its skill development initiatives. Its approach is centred on identifying vulnerable youth, providing professional training and helping participants move towards employment or self-employment.
For anyone researching a skill development NGO, the CHORD model offers an example of how vocational learning can be connected to livelihood opportunities rather than being treated as education in isolation.
