Amman-28 March, 2014

The Office for Industrial Links at GJU and the social entrepreneurship class at the School of Management and Logistic Sciences in collaboration with Migrate Global organized a kick off meeting, to introduce the T21 platform to GJU students.

T21 is a unique and innovative social learning platform with a mission to advance 21st century skills as well as career and entrepreneurial readiness of all youth (ages 15–29) in Jordan and the Middle East.

It was launched two years ago by a group of Harvard graduates. It is a leading online community that fosters collaboration among the youth, educators, mentors, government and employers.

Gozie Nwabuebo, Co-founder, Chief Executive of T21, explained the T21 vision, saying that T21 was founded to advance the educational, entrepreneurial and employment outcomes of all youth, thereby enabling their success in today’s global knowledge economies.

He further added that whether the student wants to become an entrepreneur, or to join an existing organization, what he/she learns on the T21 platform, through our project-based skills curriculum, our interactive platform, and our rich community of peers, mentors, teachers and employers, will help all to succeed!

In addition, T21 represents a comprehensive, low-cost, and sustainable solution to the growing problem of youth unemployment as well as skills gap challenges occurring globally.
