THE NEET CHALLENGE
A Changing Job Market
Without targeted, employer-led initiatives, too many young people miss out on the guidance and exposure they need — and organisations struggle to develop effective early careers pipelines. We close this gap by providing practical, meaningful mentorship that prepare young people for real work across a range of sectors, while helping businesses and schools strengthen their talent strategies and social impact.
A Changing Job Market
The world of work is shifting rapidly. Automation, role changes, and mass redundancies are reshaping career pathways and increasing uncertainty for young people entering the workforce.
The Risk of Rising NEET Numbers
Without early intervention, these challenges can lead to disengagement and an increased risk of young people becoming not in education, employment, or training (NEET).
Difficult Transitions into Work
Too many young people struggle to move from education into employment without clear guidance, exposure to workplaces, or meaningful support.
Growing Skills Gaps
Many employers report difficulty finding work-ready talent, while young people often lack opportunities to develop practical, transferable skills alongside education.
Increased Competition for Roles
Entry-level opportunities are more competitive than ever. Young people now need stronger skills, experience, and confidence to stand out in a crowded job market.
