About the generation
Generation is a nonprofit that is transforming education into employment systems to prepare, deliver, and support people for life-changing careers that would otherwise be inaccessible. The global pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented surge in unemployment. Before the pandemic, more than 75 million young adults worldwide were unemployed and three times as many underemployed – and by 2030 375 million workers of all ages had to learn new skills. At the same time, certain jobs remain in high demand, and 40 percent of employers say they have entry-level vacancies due to a skills shortage. To date, more than 38,000 people have completed generational programs preparing them for meaningful careers in 14 countries. Generation works with more than 3,900 employer partners and many implementation partners and donors. Please visit usa.generation.org for more information.
