Former Prime Minister Basdeo Panday while receiving his Honorary Doctor Of Laws Degree from the University of Trinidad and Tobago urged graduates to create their own jobs instead of waiting and looking for jobs. Dr Panday said: “There is a need of total reform of our education system particularly at the tertiary level with the object being producing graduates with the relevant skills and competencies being able to solve complex, real-world problems…..The present system seems to be oriented to producing graduates looking for a job instead of producing graduates…who will create jobs”.
