Training
Track Set for 1M Workers to Run Key Schemes
Extract from the article:
India is gearing up to train one million workers
under the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana 4.0. The focus is on rapidly
enhancing skills development and building a proficient workforce equipped with
capabilities for cutting-edge technologies and governmental initiatives.
By cultivating a pool of skilled workers, the
country aims to cater to the escalating demand for trained professionals.
This initiative is set to bridge the gap between
the current skill levels and the requirements of the Indian market, ultimately
enhancing the employability of the workforce to match the needs of the evolving
industry landscape.
My Take:
In my blog post from September 2015, I emphasized
the crucial need to ramp up skill training in India to meet the demands of the
growing workforce. I advocated for leveraging technology like Web 3.0 to skill
two crore youths annually efficiently.
The recent decision to train one million workers
under the Kaushal Vikas Yojana 4.0 aligns with my earlier suggestion of
utilizing innovative solutions to bridge the skill gap effectively.
By focusing on training programs that incorporate
new-age technologies, India can enhance its workforce's capabilities and
fulfill industry requirements seamlessly.
B. Whom
to Train? How to Train?
In my blog post from March 2016, I discussed the
need for a comprehensive roadmap to address the skill requirements of various
industry sectors. The NITI Aayog's endeavor to map industry skill needs and
create sector-specific training plans resonates with my proposal to identify
and train workers based on industry demands.
By outlining job roles and qualifications, the
government can streamline the skilling process and ensure that the workforce is
equipped to meet sector-specific requirements effectively.
The emphasis on setting up more Industrial
Training Institutes reflects the continuous effort to enhance skill development
infrastructures in the country.
Call to Action:
To the policymakers and authorities involved in
the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana 4.0, I urge you to prioritize the
alignment of training programs with industry demands and foster robust
partnerships to ensure the effective implementation of the skill development
initiative.
By closely aligning training courses with the
evolving needs of industries such as coding, artificial intelligence, and
robotics, India can skill its workforce for the future job market, driving
economic growth and innovation in the country.
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
