Examines the challenges young people are facing in getting a start in the workforce and how prepared they are for the rapidly changing world of work.
Summary
FYA’s Annual Report Card on How are young people faring in the transition from school to work examines the challenges young people are facing in getting a start in the workforce and how prepared they are for the rapidly changing world of work.
The report cards shows that while young people are staying in education longer, they are still not getting the enterprising skills they need to get a job.
It’s taking them an average of 4.7 years once they finish full time education to find full time work.
FYA’s CEO Jan Owen AM said this latest round of data shows the urgent need for Australia to invest in a national enterprise learning strategy, to ensure our young people can thrive in the future economy.
