The following is the whole context.
We set a goal of an 85 percent graduation rate—more than four times the national average! Our fifteen-year average is 80 percent,
and we now have thousands of Dell Scholar alums across the United States, with degrees and great jobs in hand.
And there is still room for improvement.
PBNS!
We followed this initiative with the Dell Young Leaders program in South Africa, which is similar but customized to the specific needs of
young people in that country, including specialized support to ensure graduates a successful transition into their first job.
