Employers need experience, but young people need an opportunity in order to gain that experience. ![Training](https://lehikeng.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Training.png?width=597&height=541&name=Training.png) Practical Pathways ## Helping Young People Take Their First Step Into the Workplace Lehikeng works to bridge that gap. We prepare participants for workplace environments and work with partner organisations to identify suitable internship placements. Through these opportunities, participants can gain: - Practical workplace experience - Professional communication skills - Exposure to workplace expectations - Mentorship and guidance - Stronger CVs and references - Greater confidence entering the job market - Potential pathways into permanent employment [Support a Child Today](https://lehikeng.org/donate?hsLang=en) Potential pathways ## How the Programme Works Identify ### We identify young people who are ready to take the next step toward employment.
