This brochure describes the International Youth Foundation (IYF)’s Passport to Success® curriculum and how its life skills training is helping educational institutions, businesses, and governments bridge the gap between current employment opportunities and today’s young jobseekers.

As a result, too many young people are unprepared to get and keep a job. To address this need, IYF partnered with the GE Foundation in 2004 to develop Passport to Success®.
