SYEP follows a three-phased approach to maximize its impact. Phase 1 begins with a capacity-building conference, connecting over 5,000 students with industry players and offering valuable insights into job readiness, internships, and national service opportunities. Phase 2 selects 50 outstanding students for an intensive boot camp, where they receive tailored mentorship and preparation for either employment or entrepreneurship. Finally, Phase 3 focuses on facilitating the rollout of entrepreneurial projects and securing direct employment opportunities for the remaining students.

Aligned with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, SYEP directly addresses the need to enhance youth employability and promote entrepreneurship. By providing practical experiences, mentorship, and networking opportunities, SYEP not only increases the chances of direct employment for students but also inspires and nurtures future entrepreneurs. The program’s comprehensive approach fosters diversity and inclusion, supports talented individuals, and contributes to both personal growth and economic development.
