IPAG is organising a social movement on Youth Employability in July 2013. It is a dynamic movement that consists of a career fair, conference, forum and arts festival that focuses giving Singapore's Youth a platform to speak their mind. This conference and career fair aims to explore how graduates and students from private institutions and vocational colleges can be more employable.

Although youth underemployment in Singapore is less severe than in many other countries, most young people found out that employers prefers graduates with practical work-experience. However, what are the ways a Singaporean youth could obtain working experience during school terms? Most students could only partake in internships opportunities during school breaks. This leads to several questions that this conference wants to address:

• Are there alternative ways of gaining practical work-experience before graduating?

• How to create equal opportunity for private and government institutions’ graduates?

• How would education institution provide the ‘not-the-best-but-most-suitable’ education and training system to equip youth for workforce immediately?

• How ITE, Private Institutions can help increase employability of their students and graduates?
