For millions of young people, the greatest barrier isn’t education — it’s opportunity. Even after graduation, many lack access to real work experience or job networks. The EmpactUs Apprenticeship Program bridges this gap, turning skills into income and knowledge into empowerment.
Across the EMEA region, young graduates face unemployment rates exceeding 30%. Without pathways to work, education alone is not enough. EmpactUs recognized this gap and built a program that connects learning directly to livelihood.
Our program combines industry-based training, mentorship, and paid work experience to ensure participants are ready for real-world challenges.
Graduates of the program have gone on to launch startups, gain full-time employment, and contribute meaningfully to their local economies. The Apprenticeship Program isn’t just about jobs, it’s about dignity, direction, and self-reliance. EmpactUs is shaping a new model of youth empowerment, one where learning leads to earning, and earning leads to lasting change. Through work-based learning, we’re helping young people turn opportunity into a lifelong path of growth.
