Social Projects

Izmir Kemalpaşa Organized Industrial Zone (KOSBİ) is an industrial zone that not only focuses on industrial development but also places great importance on social development. The social projects implemented aim to increase education, employment, and social welfare in the region, strengthening the ties between industry and society, and supporting the sustainable development of the region. Two standout projects in this area are the KOSBİ Zülfü - Mevlüt Çelik Private Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School, which provides education, and the Not Just a Worker, But a Desired Employee project, which aims to develop highly skilled professionals.

KOSBİ Zülfü - Mevlüt Çelik Private Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School: Training the Future Workforce of Industry

KOSBİ established the KOSBİ Zülfü - Mevlüt Çelik Private Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School to meet the need for a qualified workforce in the industry and to offer young people opportunities for vocational education. This school aims to equip young people in the region with modern, technology-based education, turning them into skilled professionals sought after in the industry. The school provides high-quality education in vocational and technical fields, integrating education with the industry and offering job guarantees to its graduates.

The school works in collaboration with industrial enterprises in the region, offering students internships and on-the-job training opportunities. The curriculum, designed in line with the needs of the industry, ensures that students are not only equipped with theoretical knowledge but also gain practical experience. As a result, graduates are prepared with the skills needed by the industry, making them sought-after professionals in the job market.

Not Just a Worker, But a Desired Employee Project: Empowering Youth with Skills

One of the most effective ways to address the labor shortage in industrial zones is to train qualified personnel and ensure they are educated in line with industry needs. KOSBİ launched the Not Just a Worker, But a Desired Employee project with this goal in mind. This project aims to equip young people with the technical and vocational skills required by the industry, turning them into highly desired employees in the labor market.

The main objectives of the project include:

• Training Qualified Professionals: Educating young people with the technical knowledge and skills necessary for the development of the industry.

• On-the-Job Training Programs: Providing young people with hands-on training at industrial enterprises, allowing them to apply their theoretical knowledge in real production environments.

• Employment Guarantee: Young people trained through the project are employed by industrial enterprises within the KOSBİ region, graduating with job guarantees.

The Not Just a Worker, But a Desired Employee project works in cooperation with companies in industrial zones to design training programs that meet the labor needs of these companies and facilitate the quick adaptation of young people to the workforce. Thanks to this project, young people find jobs quickly, and industrial enterprises gain easy access to the qualified labor force they need.

Sustainable Development Through Social Projects

KOSBİ aims to ensure not only economic but also social sustainability. By offering educational opportunities to young people in the region and training them according to the needs of the industry, KOSBİ contributes to both their personal development and the long-term development of the region. The social projects implemented by KOSBİ support the creation of the industrial workforce of the future while contributing to the welfare of all segments of society.

The KOSBİ Zülfü - Mevlüt Çelik Private Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School and the Not Just a Worker, But a Desired Employee project are concrete examples of KOSBİ’s vision in the fields of education and employment. These projects, which demonstrate the strong cooperation between industry and society, will continue to contribute to the social and economic development of the region.
