The promoter, Mr Pema Tashi is a certified QEAC with the QEAC No.O162. He has also lived in Perth Australia for two years in 2011-2012.

How we came into existence

The mismatch between job-seekers and employers has become a challenge. There is growing concern of rise in unemployment in the country despite shortage of labor force. The youth unemployment in Bhutan is greatly contributed by mismatch between the job-seekers skills and industry requirement. Bhutan today sees large scale import of manpower from neighboring India and other countries to fill the gap in skilled manpower in various vocation and industry.

Youth and students now recognize this paradox, and are well aware that they now need to make themselves employable by equipping themselves with the right professional skills and educational qualification. But this is easier said than done. While the country boasts of very high literacy rate, there are very few institutions and training providers that really make the student job-ready. The limited intake capacity in the few government training institutes and colleges is another major hurdle for those seeking to pursue further training and education. Every year, more than 6000 plus young Bhutanese who complete year 12 seek admissions outside Bhutan. They are indeed potential candidates for the future of Bhutan who require good guidance and quality education. On top of that, more than 2000 youth graduate every year from colleges and universities.

In this every-changing economy, a need exists for our young people to be self-reliant, visionary entrepreneurs, creating opportunity and bold futures for themselves. Relying on government and employers to provide these solutions is not a realistic or successful recourse. The solution to this dilemma is to afford students the opportunity to develop themselves into skilled professionals through training and education in highly reputed education institutions and training providers.

It is in this regard that Build Youth Bhutan came into existence to float opportunities of learning, rich interaction with people from diverse culture and backgrounds to young people in reputed and internationally accredited universities, colleges and training institutions.

Achievement

As of 31st December 2018,  Build Youth Bhutan has successfully placed more than 200 students in various education providers in Australia. For a small country like Bhutan with  small population of about 700000 and even smaller client base, the figure is quite an achievement. We believe in low volume and high quality. As a result our visa success rate for student recruitment for Australia  has always been very high.
