“This young talent needs to
be motivated for vocational
education,” KAPIL SIBAL
India has the largest, youngest population
in the world. But it is also the most
unemployable population as it lacks work
skills that can make it employable
A FICCI-Ernst & Young Paper survey
says about 80% of the Indian workforce
does not possess identifiable marketable
skills. The survey found that only 25% of
the Indian professionals are considered
“employable” by multinationals and the
difficulty of employers in India to fill job
vacancies has increased to 67%in 2011
compared with 16% in last year.
It is estimated that over 75% of the new
jobs to be created in India will be ‘skill-
based.’ While the country’s overall supply
of highly skilled labour marginally exceeds
demand, there is a shortage of adequately
qualified (or employable) people. The
study said this was primarily due to the
fact that the Indian training institutions
are heterogeneous in nature varying in
quality of education and training

“SOME AMAZING FACTS”
60%of India’s 1.2 billion people are in the working age group. However, only
10% of the 300 million children in India between the age of 6 and 16 will pass
school and go beyond. Only 5%of India’s labour force in the age group 19-24
years is estimated to have acquired formal training,” said S. Ramadorai,
advisor to the Prime Minister in National Skill Development Council
For the economy to grow at 8% to 9%, it is required that the secondary and
tertiary sectors grow at 10% to 11%, assuming agriculture grows at 4%. In
such a scenario, it is obvious that a large portion of the workforce would
migrate from the primary sector (agriculture) to the secondary and tertiary
sectors.
While the school education sector is about 227 million in enrolment, the
combined enrolment in higher education and vocational training is about
15.3 million. By limiting to this to the technically and vocationally qualified
and skilled workforce, primarily comprising of ITI/ITC (1 million), BE (1.7
million), Polytechnics (0.7 million), we can observe that the current pool of
skilled talent is around 3.4 million

PROBLEMS IN
ENHANCING SKILLS IN
YOUTH
According to a survey conducted by FICCI-Ernst & Young
Paper, even though over 40 million people are registered in
employment exchanges, only 0.2 million get jobs annually.
Even startling is the fact that about 80% of the Indian
workforce does not possess identifiable marketable skills
WHAT IS THE REASON FOR THIS???????????????
INSPITE HAVING 60 % YOUTH POWER WHY WE DON’T
HAVE PROPER MARKETABLE SKILLS????????????
WHY??????????????????????
LETS LOOK INTO IT IN DETAILS
6. `
A very large geographical expanse comprising of 6,38,365 villages, 4378 towns
over 35 cities and 640 districts, with difficult terrain and varying social economic
conditions make it difficult for all learners to have access to training.
States like Bihar, (with a population greater than that of Germany), Jharkhand, etc
have little access to skills training and the population comprises of a large
unskilled workforce. There is wide disparity in industrial development, and have
little industrial activity, which makes it difficult for workers to find jobs
Nearly 37 percent of the Indian population lives below the poverty line and lives
on less than 1 Dollar a day. They cannot afford even basic amenities leave aside
education and training.
About 89% of the 15-59 year olds have had no vocational training. Of the 11%
who received vocational training, only 1.3% received formal vocational training.
The current training capacity is a fraction of the 12.8 million new entrants into
the workforce every yearTherefore access to skills programs becomes a major
challenge.
Since India has set a huge target for itself of 500 million people it requires
programs that are scalable, replicable and accessible, this has created a unique
opportunity in terms of economies of scale for the new providers, there is still a
huge need for more companies to enter the market and offer good quality service
if they are adequately incentivised.

WHAT STEPS GOVERENMENT
HAS TAKEN????
the National Policy for Skill Development
adopted in 2009, aims to create a skilled workforce of 500 million people by
2022
National Vocational Education Qualification Framework
In early 2012, they announced the adoption of the , which will be introduced to
secondary schools, colleges, polytechnics, and universities in 2013-14.
International collabarations
In 2011, India and New Zealand agreed to form a council to coordinate
cooperation in post-secondary education – the India New Zealand Education
Council (INZEC).
Kangan TAFE, a vocational education provider that maintains several
campuses in Victoria, Australia, signed an agreement in 2011 to offer its
certifications through vocational institutions in the Indian state of Maharashtra,
making it the first Australian vocational education provider to establish itself in
India.
UK came up with extending its vocational program
Joining the rush to benefit from India’s drive towards vocational
professionalism, the Association of Colleges – an affiliation of over 300
UK colleges – has opened a permanent office in Delhi,
The CEO and MD of the NSDC, welcomed the AoC to India, and
invited the association to participate in the private public partnership
model administered by the NSDC,
Organisations involved in the development of vocational skills
education, such as FICCI and CII, also expressed their support for AoC
