2. In India, Unemployment rate has increased
from 8.8%(2002) to 9.9%(2012)
According to a 2012 Talent
Shortage Survey by
Manpower Group,48% in
India reported difficulty in
filling key jobs.
Mr. Makarand Khatavkar,
Managing Director and
Head of Human Resources
for Deutsche Bank Group in
India, notes a widely-
reported statistic that only
about 25% of India’s 3.7
million college graduates
each year are considered
work ready for the country’s
booming technology sector.
3. AROUND 75% OF TECHNICAL GRADUATES AND 85%
OF GENERAL GRADUATES ARE UNEMPLOYABLE
According to a survey conducted by FICCI-Ernst &Young Paper,about
80% of the Indian workforce does not possess identifiable marketable
skills.
Interpretation: Proper Training is not provided to the graduates.
According to S.Ramadorai ,advisor to the Prime Minister in National
Skill Development Council ,Only 5%of India’s labour force in the age
group 19-24 years is estimated to have acquired formal training
Interpretation: Lack of specialized skills among productive youth.
Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibbal said that since
there was an acute shortage of labour at Tier 2 and Tier 3.It is
anticipated that by 2020,about 220 million students will pass out from
school,out of which,about 150 million will not enroll for college
education.
Interpretation: This young talent needs to be motivated for vocational
education.
4. Collaboration of government with industries and
extensive industry based training in colleges is an
innovative initiative that will bridge the skill gap
Extensive
industry based
training in
colleges
FEASIBLE TRAINING AS PER
THE REQUIREMENT OF
CORPORATE SECTOR
EXPERT TRAINERS HIRED
FROM VARIOUS INDUSTRIES
INCLUDING RETIRED
SERVICEMEN AND
EXECUTIVES,WHO WILL
GIVE THE IDEA OF,WHAT
THE INDUSRTY NEEDS
A change in curriculum to
incorporate the industrial
requirement for each
professional course.
How to
implement?
Regular industrial visits
on weekly/monthly
basis.
Field-wise categorisation of
industries which are to be
visited.
Credits should be given on
the basis of practical work ,
projects etc.
The practical works should
be made mandatory for
colleges to be recognised by
UGC and government should
provide fund for training in
various colleges.
Ruling out the
existing system.
Instead of providing
trainings to
graduates by
government(NSDC),it
should be provided
throughout
graduation.
There will be a wide
coverage(of almost
every student in the
country) at a very
minute cost of just 5.5
crores annually.
5. CATEGORIZATION OF TRAININGS
ENGLISH
PROFICIENCY
IT /
COMPUTER
BASED
TRAINING
NON-IT
FACILITATED
BY :
Professional English
training institutes
Top Indian IT
companies like
HCL,TCS,INFOSYS.
PSU’s.
Top medical
institutes.
Law firms etc.
NUMBER OF
INDUSTRIES
500 different
institutes.
On an average,50 IT
companies ,
covering all
institutes.
100 companies of
different NON-IT
fields.

6. ESTIMATED COST OF THEWHOLE
MODEL WILL BE AROUND 5.5 CRORE
PERYEAR
Organisation
cost(whole panel
formation for the
same in the
organisation)
Technology
cost(machine set-
up cost, software
installation cost
Transportation
cost(industrial
visits cost)
Coordination
cost(collaboration
with industries and
institutes)
7. THE IMPLEMENTATION MODEL
Government
Industries and
training
centres
Government
representative
Colleges
and
institutes
Students
The government
representative will be
responsible to ensure
active participation of
the colleges in the
system.
The government
representative will be
responsible for
collaboration with the
training centres and
industries.
The training
centres will
provide quality
training to the
students.
The colleges
will award
credits for the
training
8. CHANGES IN CURRICULUM OF
COLLEGES
Proposed changes in
“UGC” act
30 % of the credits must
be given on the basis of
practical training.
The practical work
should be evenly
distributed throughout
the degree.
There must be at least 5
industrial visits every
semester.
Recommended changes
in the curriculum
Management and English
proficiency courses should
be introduced at different
levels.
The subjects should be more
flexible rather than rigid . A
student should be able to
choose a subject of interest.
Introduction of minor degree
that the student can opt for
from departments other than
his major.
9. KEY RISKS INVOLVED IN
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE MODEL
Providing quality training to individuals
during graduation to rule out further need
of training
Providing incentives and other benefits to
philanthropists and the business and arts
sectors.
Developing parterships with industries
and emplyment agencies
• Lack of Collaboration
and systems linkages at
all levels.
• The availability of a
qualified workforce to
address the transition
needs of youth
• Student’s self-
determination and self-
advocacy.
Model
Risks
Promote collaborative staff
development programs.
Specific attention to both pre-
service and continuing education
programs is needed.
Incorporate self-determination and
career development skills in the
general education curriculum.
• Some industries prefer
to train their interns
within the
organisation.
• Private sector entities
are not willing to
contribute effectively to
Government’s
endeavours.
• Providing job
opportunities to each
and every individual is
a big challenge.
ACCOMPLISHMENT
PROBLEMS
10. This model will be able to impact almost 6 million (3.5 Mn
students + 2.5 Mn professionals and retired
executives etc. ) people every year along with the thousands of
industries all over the country.
