Most Kenyan youth do not have skills for the 'present' job market.

And technology is already rendering some jobs obsolete. Kama kuuza gazeti.

But with increased usage of interactive content it will be easier to offer training to these youth. But what should they be trained in?

Can you come up with jobs of the future and with brief descriptions?

No skill means 'clean slate' and may be a blessing. We are facing the challenge of changing our economic systems and all that is required is stretching our imagination.

For example, since more people will have smart phones, shouldn't we think of ways that these tools can help in production processes?

Do you think cottage industry can survive in such an environment?

They are now working on 3D printers that print
copies of themselves.

If 3D printers could recycle old plastic and metallic materials then that would be a game changer.

if they don't become creative enough, they may turn into yahoo yahoo boys.
That's tech you know.

The hottest job in the near future is a data scientist. I still believe we're in the information age not knowledge age/society. Data scientists are people who transform and translate information into usable and productive knowledge.
