This paper explores the historical legacy that shapes the current higher education
system in most sub-Sahara African countries. It further analyzes various specificities in
terms of production of graduates in many sub-Sahara African higher educational schools,
as well as the rate, process, and conditions of employment of newly graduated students. Inspired
by the comparative advantage offered by the Indian education system in Information,
Communication and Technology (ICT), and the Chinese education system in terms
of technical skills and work readiness, the paper suggests an educational pathway that selects,
orients and empowers students in these science related areas. It strongly emphasizes
the promotion of entrepreneurship, touristic and agribusiness education at all levels of professional
schools. Furthermore, it strongly advocates for the new learner empowerment approach
that awakes and enhances the lifelong learning experience of the future sub-Sahara
African employees.
