AN INITIATIVE TO CURB UNEMPLOYMENT

INTRODUCTION

First of all, I want to tell the reader before reading this article that, this is coming from a person who have just somehow entered the corporate world and like everyone else knows first-hand how employment in India works and how difficult it is to find a job in India especially if you are not from IIT’S and NIT’S or any other college that might really boost up your skills (the bubble other college students live in).so this is a diagnosis of a recent Delhi graduate who has shaped his opinion on some stats and off-course own personal experience.

UNEMPLOYABLE.There is a bigger threat than unemployment in India which is being unemployable. It is a state of a person or population in which they are not skilled enough to be productive for a firm. This is a serious lack of quality in education and training which is not being addressed by people or government seriously. Although this problem is growing in developed western continents also but it is typical in India because of large size of graduates it churns out every year, to give you a perspective every year we produce more people than total population of Switzerland.POOR PRIMARY EDUCATION

My mother is a government school teacher and have heard thousands of stories about poor education in India. She claims that there are many 10th standard students who are not able to read and write just because there is a policy that don’t let these student fail before 8th standard.There are approximately 16 lakh students enrolled in Delhi government schools. "About one-fourth of all students till Class VIII, who go to the next class every year, are provisionally promoted.

So this qualifies mostly the private schools students that will be able to develop themselves in graduation because others lack primary education. Already we have big deficit of eligible students to begin with.

GRADUATION PROBLEMS

To start with education and training, An engineering graduate carries the heaviest tag of being unemployable, super hit movie "3 idiots" was based on this issue only specifically for engineers.it outstandingly showed that how much a student is ill-groomed and is forced to become a sheep that has only purpose of following its fellow sheep in the flock.

INDIAN UNEMPLOYABLE

Center of idea of answer for this question will remain SKILLS. Leave aside skills for innovation, there is not enough skills in Indian graduates for a simple regular job. Although unemployment is rampant in every sector because of extremely poor primary education in government schools.

situation is up to level that a government school students in 10 class cant read and write properly even hindi!!because the students are promoted upto 8th standard even if they don’t score anything. A student like this will obviously have hard time even if he gets into any graduate institute somehow.

Now coming to graduation, let me show you some stats to give you the perspective of the condition

Only 7 per cent engineering graduates employable: India Today

The country is producing as many as 10 lakh engineers a year. There needs to be a serious review, Do we really need so many engineers? Are there that many jobs?" : IIT kanpur

More than 60% of the eight lakh engineers graduating from technical institutions across the country every year remain unemployed.

not only we have excessive engineer but they are unemployable which is a bigger curse to a country

Now, although there are ample jobs in IT but other streams lack jobs to sustain even half of the workforce, so they have to opt for IT and thus starting a vicious circle of being unemployable and unemployed. Most of the IT is basically support for bigger European and American firms. So to sum up

Lack of Skill

irrelevant jobs are in abundance

Lack of experience in corporate

Lack of resources for a quality education for innovation

there are some organization indeed who work to develop graduates to make them corporate ready or training them to work in an organization, they also give them on the job training which gives you the actual experience working in a corporate. To know more about it click here :Inno-Labz |

STATSTICAL AND UNEMPLOYMENT

Last year a partner KPMG India published a piece in The New York Times about the poor quality of graduates ending them entering the workforce in India now a national survey finds that almost 50 percent of India's graduates areunemployable it's the season forstaggeringly high cut-offs on campus butone that don't necessarilymake the cutin thecorporate world. A new survey ofgraduate students across the countrysays that more than halfof them are notfit to behired India produces fivemilliongraduates everyyearbut poorEnglish language skills computertrainingand lack of analyticalreasoning making the cutfrom the lot.

THE BITTER DATA

1. More than 50 lakh students graduate per year. Very few are fit to be employed.
2. More than 50% of India’s youth lack basic skills and quality
3. GER (Gross enrolment ratio) for higher education in India is 34% which is frightfully less as compared to other developed nations (56%).
4. GER is 50% of the world’s average
5. 80% of India’s higher education system of the year 2030 is yet to be built.
6. 10,00,000 people join the labour force every month for the next 20 years without adequate training
7. Shortage of good institutions providing quality higher education.
8. Lack of flexibility, recognition of prior learning and employer linkages.
9. Lack of English knowledge and cognitive skills in students.

SARKAAR KAAM

1. Imparting higher education, the unconventional way!
2. Introducing scholarships for deserving students
3. Providing proper counselling to students
4. Workshops and Seminars to create awareness on employability skills.

WHAT TO IMPART IN A GRADUATE

• Innovative problem solving
• Masterful communication
• Collaboration
• Passion for quality
• Personal excellence
• Independence

APJ ABDUL KALAM ON UNEMPLOYABLITY

"unemployability" of a majority of Indian youth, which was a result of skill deficit, was a bigger crisis than unemployment itself

He said universities and institutions should create global cadres of youth with special skills and those with higher education for powering not only Indian manufacturing and services sector, but also that of various countries. "The rest of our youth, who are not covered by the higher education system, should have world class skills in other areas, varying from construction and carpentry to fashion design and software and hardware maintenance." He urged the education system to ensure that no Indian youth was without either world class higher education or world class skills

Our education system should not simply produce the clones of individuals who pass through the conventional system of examination based on the standard system of question and answer pattern.

MOTIVATION

According to NSDC, the real estate sector will have a requirement of 76 million skilled workers by 2022.
