Nairobi; Kenya: Among the many criticisms that have been levelled against the education system, none bites more than the constant jibe by employers that the graduates being released into the job market are all paper and hot air. That they have book-knowledge but have no clue how to actually do something.
It is a claim that many company CEOs and supervisors can agree with. The Kenya Federation of Employers has frequently complained that something is not right when graduates brandish their spectacular degrees but have near zero understanding of what they were supposedly training for.
