Why Are We Taking Responsibility For Bridging The Gap Between Education And Employment?

Why Are We Taking Responsibility For Bridging The Gap Between Education And Employment?

Moving from a learning environment into employment has never been easy. Employers want accomplished employees with the work-based skills they will need to add value to an organisation. Educators teach learners to demonstrate they have achieved a certain level of competence in a given subject. Learners do this by proving they can understand and reproduce the information that they’ve been taught.

There has long been a mismatch between what educators are teaching and what employers want from their candidates. Employers are looking for people with established skills, not just the ability to pass exams. They will have to spend time and money training them up otherwise. But education is focused on academic study and exam pass rates.

There’s a huge gap that needs to be filled. So, what’s the answer?

ABMA Education bridges the gap between education and employer

At ABMA Education we understand that this problem exists. If anything, the gap is getting wider and we are passionate about providing a solution. Our vocational courses bridge the gap between education and employer and give our learners the essential hard and soft skills they need to make a difference. We equip our learners with the skills they require for the world beyond academia.

Somebody had to take on the responsibility and we are proud to.

What are the missing skills that employers are looking for?

Along with the traditional hard skills that specific jobs require, employers need soft skills. These skills are not typically taught in general education but they ‘promote productivity, efficiency, and effective communication in the workplace’.?

Employers need employees who are organised and can motivate themselves and others. People who can work as part of a team, are flexible, willing to learn, and professional. People who can use their emotional intelligence, lead, and produce results.

How can you prove you have the skills that employers want?

If you can prove that you already possess the skills that employers so desperately need, you are already a step ahead of the rest. Because we understand the importance of the right skills being taught by the right teachers. The hard and soft business skills taught in our qualifications are transferable and will help you get ahead in life as well as in the workforce.
