In a few days close to 1 million matrics in South Africa will be writing their final exams. Stats suggest that a large portion of them (youth unemployment is at 41%) will not find work - let alone meaningful employment. Exams run from 13 October to 25 November across 123 papers. While some hail the matric final mark as a lifelong score that either equals success or failure, matric results are not the be all and end all! There are many opportunities for school-leavers, regardless of matric results. These range from SETA-offered practical skills course to careers at the SANDF or SAPS. With respect to planning for meaning it is equally as essential that school-leaves are informed of a myriad of skills, training, study and funding options. Access to employers and industry associations are a key part of this process which makes the Working World Careers expo an invaluable opportunity that attracts 10 000 Gr 11 and 12's annually together with unemployed youth. Organisations are invited to join in equipping youth and adressing our scourge - # #๐„๐๐ฎ๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐Œ๐š๐ญ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ
