Vocational Training Programs seem to gain steam in the last few years. Now, even schools and colleges are partnering with training companies in India to provide their students with vocational education. This is great news for a country, which is on its way to make a sizeable presence in the global working population in the coming decades.
Now with the introduction of National Vocational Education Qualification Framework (NVEQF), skill based training programs will be offered right at the school level, which means demand for vocational education programs is going to soar across all levels!
Be it teacher training programs, or spoken English programs, or selling & communication programs, vocational training programs, if utilized properly, can change the very face of this economy. What is need the most now is the co-operation by industries. As of now, skilled manpower doesn’t get their due recognition from the industry players. They need to change their whole approach towards skilled manpower and give them what they rightfully deserve.
Even youngsters need to look at vocational education from a fresh angle. Only when they would start looking at vocational courses as a mainstream career option, a big change would come, for a large number of youth who are still unemployable and for the Indian economy that wants to emerge as a the next big thing in the global arena.
