of youth by strengthening personal, technical, and organisational skills while

the partnership seeks to create stronger pathways from education to employment.
K.

it requires connecting them with the right career guidance, industry insights,
and opportunities. Our collaboration with foundit brings together TASK’s strong
academic network with foundit’s technology-enabled career solutions and labour
market intelligence to create more meaningful pathways from education to
employment. Through this partnership, we aim to empower students and job
