HR firm launches with eye on SMEs

A new human resource consulting firm is aiming to create jobs for the youth by developing entrepreneurial mindsets.

 Rise and Learn seeks to achieve this by delivering practical, relevant and agile learning programmes.

Speaking during the official launch, the firm’s director Emily Kamunde-Osoro, said Kenya must harness the creativity, dynamism and energy of the youth to create job opportunities.

"The unemployment levels in my country keep me awake at night, but the possibility of creating one extra job wakes me up in the morning,” she said.

Rise and Learn provides services, including corporate training and human resource outsourcing for small firms.
