The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Ethiopia’s Integrated Youth Activity–Kefeta, is a five-year project, led by Amref Health Africa (Amref) and implemented by its consortium partners since August 2021. Integrating democracy and good governance, basic education, higher education, economic empowerment, and sexual reproductive health, Kefeta takes a comprehensive approach in advancing the economic and social opportunities for youth in Ethiopia.
One of the program components focuses on improving youth's skills and capacity development that are the key aspects for employability. To secure that first job as well as navigate in the labor market, young candidates need not only the technical skills to perform specific tasks but also core work skills like learning to learn, communication, problem-solving and teamwork. Along with good technical understanding and subject knowledge, employers often outline a set of skills that they would prefer from an employee. These skills are what they believe will equip the employee to conduct their role to the best of their ability.
Kefeta has designed the following employment relevant trainings for students:
- Work-habit (employability skills)
- Life skills
- Career Counseling
This online registration form is developed to identify young people with strong interest to improve their employability skills. In 2024/2025 financial year, the above listed trainings and/or counseling will only be provided for registered students. This registration form is applicable only for the 11 Universities and Polytechnic colleges working with Kefeta.
