     (CUP) — Canada’s youth are 
     
     disappointed with their job 
     
     opportunities because they 
     
     don’t match their educa- 
     
     tional experience, a recent 
     
     survey says. 
     
    

    
     The. Canadian Youth 
     
     Federation — responding to 
     
     a request by Jean Charest, 
     
     minister of state for youth, 
     
     fitness, and amateur sport — 
     
     polled 2100 people from ages 
     
     15 to 24 across Canada. 
     
    
   
   
    
     It found 90% of students 
     
     think their career will relate 
     
     directly to their education. 
     
    
   
   
    
     But only 44% of graduates 
     
     find that this is true. 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     Students still recognize 
     
     the need for post secondary 
     
     education, the survey indi- 
     
     cates. A full 50% expect 
     
     to graduate from Univer- 
     
     sity. “The message thai get- 
     
     ting a good education is one 
     
     of life’s necessities is firmly 
     
     lodged in the minds of Cana- 
     
    
   
   
    
     - dian young people,” the re- 
     
    
   
   
    
     port said. 
     
    
   
   
    
     But only 56% of grad- 
     
     uates with full-time jobs 
     
     ranked academic qualifica- 
     
     tions as “extremely impor- 
     
     tant” in helping them get 
     
     hired. 
     
    

    
     Don McGillis, assistant 
     
     manager at a Canada Em- 
     
     ployment Center in Toronto 
     
     said, “In most areas it would

     TERM NEVER END?

     be impossible for schools to 
     
     teach practical skills, be- 
     
     cause they could never keep 
     
     pace with technical changes 
     
     in the work place. 
     
    

    
     “An academic program 
     
     provides the necessary gen- 
     
     eral background from which 
     
     students can go on to learn 
     
    
   
   
    
     skills applicable to their 
     
     jobs.” 
     
     McGillis said students 
     
    
   
   
    
     should make sure their aca- 
     
     demic programs-are_ bal- 
     
     anced. 
     
    
   
   
    
     “Unemployment levels 
     
     are so low, and there are jobs 
     
     in most general fields,” he 
     
     said. “If a person can’t find 
     
     appropriate work, then they 
     
     must not have planned their 
     
     original program very well.”
