About CLAP@JC
Funded and created by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, CLAP@JC was launched in 2015 which aims to support a paradigm shift of career and life development practice across education, community youth services, and the workplace to smoothen the school-to-work transition.
To uplift the industry standard, CLAP@JC has systematised this approach in creating its Hong Kong Benchmarks for Career and Life Development, which support young people from diverse backgrounds in developing the competence, agency, and aspiration to explore multiple pathways that align with their own values, attitudes, skills, and knowledge. Thus far, CLAP@JC has engaged 122 local secondary schools, 115 nonprofit youth-service units, and 3,700 employers in its network.
