This initiative targeted unemployed and underemployed young men and women, between the ages of 16 and 35 in rural communities, throughout the tri-island state of Grenada.

The objectives were to:

• Recognize the skillsets of youth through the accreditation of prior learning programme;
• Provide eligible candidates with a certification leading to self and other employment opportunities in areas that are market driven; and
• Increase the candidates’ marketability, potential to earn incomes above the poverty level, ability to re-enter formal training, and improve their standard of living.
