Our impact
We reverse pervasive unemployment for our graduates and help them achieve economic mobility for themselves and their families.
We define impact as advancing on three dimensions simultaneously
Breadth
Our annual and cumulative volume of graduates:
graduates globally
graduates expected in Ghana by the end of 2025
Depth
Our global employment and income outcomes within 3 and 6 months of programme completion
of graduates placed in jobs within six months of programme completion globally (76% at three months)
Durability
Sustained employment, income, and well-being outcomes over time for country economy type like Ghana:
of employed alumni earning above a living wage 2-5 years after programme completion in similar economies to Ghana
continue to be employed
are able to meet their daily needs
are able to save money
Who We Serve
Female
with 1 or more dependents
cannot cover their daily financial needs

We believe that great employees are identified through their skills, rather than their demographics
Our learners have a range of profiles by age, education, ethnicity, gender and income.
Education level

Generation reverses pervasive unemployment
Globally, 72% of Alumni are in a role that is related to their Generation training, which positively impacts career growth and financial health.
Our graduates find employment quickly…

of our graduates are working within 6 months of graduation ( at three months)
…and stay employed for years
Graduates make strong progress on their economic mobility journeys
We want to see our graduates in jobs that provide stable, living wage incomes, and we see strong progress from different starting points. Here is the global accumulated data for lower-middle income countries.
Our graduates are earning salaries they use to make ends meet and for education, housing, healthcare, and more
“Empowering individuals with the skills they need to succeed not only transforms lives but also strengthens communities and drives economic growth. At Generation Ghana, we believe in the power of training and jobs to create lasting impact, improving the breadth, depth, and durability of opportunities for all. Together, we can build a future where everyone has the chance to thrive.”

Each year, we survey thousands of Generation graduates who are 2-5 years post-programme to understand how they are doing and what impact Generation continues to have on their lives.
