Apart from providing evidence-based research services to the community, Policy 21 has also over the past 13 years provided training and employment services to students, out-of-school youth, the employed, housewives and other job seekers looking for part-time work.

Training is provided to temporary full-time and part-time staff on the use of computer, interview skills, and data analysis and research techniques. They are deployed to a variety of research work, including conducting interviews, data editing, data processing and the preparation of research reports.

It is believed that these training and employment opportunities will help enhance inter-personal and intra-personal skills including communication skills and self-confidence, especially for students and out-of-school youth.

Over the past 13 years, Policy 21 has provided training and employment services to more than 4,400 job seekers.

With the help of NGOs, recruitment activities are conducted in different places in Hong Kong, especially in the New Territories.
