Talent pipeline
Access to participants with evidenced competency profiles — with their explicit consent.
Hire for skills before the market sees them.
70% of employers already use skills-based hiring (NACE Job Outlook 2026). Gen Z will be roughly 30% of the global workforce by 2030. YTAA gives your company a responsible route into early-talent engagement — three to five years before this generation enters the labour market — through a shared career-readiness infrastructure you help shape.
- 70% of employers use skills-based hiring
- Gen Z ≈ 30% of workforce by 2030
- Shortage of qualified candidates
Five value lines
Employer brand for Gen Z
The earliest and most credible channel: be present where 15–18-year-olds make their first career choices.
Measurable CSR / ESG
Not abstract charity: a report with numbers — participants assessed, regions covered, outcomes tracked.
Skills intelligence
Aggregated, anonymised analytics on what the next generation actually demonstrates — by country, sector, profession.
Employee engagement
Structured volunteering: your people as mentors, case experts and session guests.
Not a transaction — a loop
YTAA operates as a Talent & Career Readiness Loop. Companies contribute what only they can — current skills demand, real business cases, mentors, internships and early-career exposure. In return they receive what they cannot build alone: a responsible route into early-talent engagement, clearer understanding of emerging capabilities, and a chance to close the gap between entry-level demand and student preparation.
The outcomes and feedback return to YTAA's independent research — making every next cycle more accurate for everyone in the ecosystem.
Companies may fund surveys, research and programmes. Sponsorship never buys access to individual participant data, preferred recommendations or control over conclusions.
Founding partners shape the standard while it is being built.
