5. Skill Demographics – Opportunity and Threat
1. About 60% of the labour force is below 40 years of age
and hardly 2% of it is trained
2. Less than 10% population has completed higher
secondary or above; Only 32% students enroll for middle
level education
3. Lack of vocational training has led to degraded quality of
employment. A large population is either unemployed or
works as casual labour
4. Existing system of skill development training requires a
minimum education qualification, thus restricting less
educated/out of school youth and existing workers
5. Availability of skill-oriented training programs is limited to
a few trades only, and does not meet the Industry skill
requirement
Key Issues Recommendations
 India, as compared to other nations has the youngest population, thus a
unique opportunity to leverage its youth by launching a Nation-wide
training program to increase productivity
 Affordability of education and socio-economic factors lead to high drop-
out rate. An education cum vocational training program at schools will
help in increasing employability
 To address changing skill requirements, refresher training programs are
required for skill upgradation of existing manpower
 Use of state-of-the-art multimedia and ICT technologies such as video
conferencing will reduce cost and increase accessibility to quality
education and training
 Vocational education through PPP model presents a viable and
sustainable opportunity for the Government to harness the untapped
 Considering skill requirements of Industries is important while revising
existing courses and introducing new ones

6. Requirement of Skill Development Program
State of Affairs – India (1/2)
Until 2022, there is an annual demand of about 80 lakh skilled people across industries. The existing skill
development infrastructure suffers from poor capacity utilization and can meet only 40% of this demand
