title:

Recommendation 9. VTCs and/or the Employment services centers to link with private companies to arrange internship or employment for VTCs graduates with the view to expose them to technical experience before supporting them in SYB training It will be difficult for graduated students, even through they got KAB training, to start a self-employment or micro business without being exposed to technical experience for 2-3 years and /or getting additional professional training through internship for a period of 3 to 6 months in the occupation they have in order to become more proficient. The practical training would enable the graduates to enhance their chance for starting a business. The VTCs and/or the Employment services centers should support the graduated students to get internship or employment as a step towards starting a business. SYB could be therefore delivered to those graduates who got practical technical experience and interested to start a business.
