Bank course gives education system's rejects 2nd chance

By Haaretz Staff and Channel 10

Tags: deprived youth, Education

Haaretz.com/Channel 10 daily feature for January 15, 2008.

Not often do the education system's outcasts get a second chance to prove themselves, but a new project operated by the First International Bank of Israel attempts to provide such teenagers with just that.

The project allows youths who have been termed hopeless by the mainstream education system, many of them expelled from their schools, to meet with senior business executives and learn management skills.
