Theme: Reconciling Education For Employment And Education For Self Reliance

Education for Employment and Self Reliance is very vital in today's educational system, Many young graduates are unemployable and dependent on parents and guardians after graduation due to a poor educational system. This increases the unemployment rate in the country. It also makes many educational institutions unattractive and liability to society. Education should be relevant to society; it must focus on solving societal problems and work oriented. The purpose of this conference is to set a new agenda on Education for Employment and Self Reliance thus bridging the current gap in the education system.
