Govt skilling programmes struggle to produce workplace-ready talent: Report
A new Gi Group Holding report says government skilling programmes are not producing workplace-ready talent. It points to gaps in practical exposure, behavioural skills and workplace tools. Only one quarter of participants landed a full-time role at the organisation where they trained. If you hire from these schemes, check real on-the-job training before you count on job-ready candidates.
Key Statutory Highlights
- A Gi Group Holding report says government skilling programmes are struggling to produce workplace-ready talent.
- The report finds gaps in practical exposure, behavioural skills and workplace tools among participants.
- Only 25 per cent of participants got a full-time job at the organisation where they trained.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you hire from skilling schemes, ask about the practical, on-the-job training a candidate actually received, and plan your own short training period rather than assuming they are fully workplace-ready.
