Generation

• Generation is an independent non-profit founded in 2014 by McKinsey & Company. Our mission is to transform education to employment systems to prepare, place, and support people into life-changing careers that would otherwise be inaccessible. We have a methodology that we believe can serve hundreds of thousands—and eventually millions—of people who are unemployed, underemployed, or need to learn new skills. Our program creates real business value for employers and lasting career impact for participants to help bridge the education to employment gap—at speed and scale.
• We have trained and graduated 72,000+ people into careers across 17 countries with diverse social, economic and labor-market contexts. 90% of graduates obtained jobs within 6 months. We are constantly learning, using data, experience, and dialogue with partners to grow and improve. We collaborate with other stakeholders to drive systemic change.
• In the Asia-Pacific region, we currently operate in Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand. We are looking to launch in Vietnam in late 2023/early 2024, in partnership with a local organisation.
• During this pre-launch phase, we need someone on the ground in Vietnam.
