ABOUT GENERATION
Generation is a global non-profit organization that supports adults to achieve economic mobility through employment. Generation trains and places adult learners of all ages into careers that are otherwise inaccessible, working in partnership with governments, employers, and other system actors.

To date, the network has nearly 120,000+ graduates, 15,500 employers and 40+ professions in 17 countries. When learners join Generation, 90% are unemployed, of whom half are long-term unemployed. Three months after program completion, graduates have an 80% employment rate, rising to 90% within six months. Generation graduates have earned $1 billion+ in wages to date, globally.
