It
is indeed a dichotomy.
On
one hand, most countries have millions of unemployed with unemployment rates
ranging from 10 % to 25 %.
On
other hand , very same countries have unfilled jobs due to non-availability of
workers with ” right “ skills.
Here
is an example :
USA
EUROPE
Unemployed…………………….9.8
% …………….22.9 Million
Unfilled
Jobs …………………3.0 million ……..20.0 Million
As
per a European Commission study, Europe will
need to fill an “ additional “ 16 million “ highly-skilled ” jobs by 2020 ,
taking the total to 36 million !
Countries
like India
churn-out 3.5 million graduates each year but find that only 0.5 million
possess the right skills to get employed !
Are
educationists listening ?
With
regards
Hemen
parekh
Jobs
for All = Peace on Earth
