The master-builders assoc. a group of architects and real estate devolpers spoke publicly about wanting imported skilled labour on site projects.
If we cannot train a pool of people to perform tasks efficiently such as in basic labour, that is a measuring stick to the quality of expertise at hand in Jamaica today.
Our semi-literate graduates cannot fit in to basic IT jobs like telemarketing on a quantitative level because they cannot simply spell C-A-T cat.
Compare us with yesteryear and post colonial Jamaica, compare us with Boston`s school system and standards, we just are not up to scratch for the advanced world beyond the boundaries of our insulated island. </div></div>

there is no reason for our educational system graduate students who lack basic reading, riteting and rithmetic skills ..
without the basics .. yuh can train dem .. yes
but at greater cost and effort ..
so some might might shy away ..
