To enhance skill development in the country, the Central government could soon initiate a mission, ‘Sarva Kaushal Abhiyaan.’ This will be on the lines of the ‘Sarva Shiksha Abhiyaan’, a flagship government project, which works towards spreading primary education in the country.
Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (Independent Charge), Rajiv Pratap Rudy who made this announcement on Saturday. Rudy also said that the government has formed a Working Group to work out a transparent policy for state-run Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) and will also suggest ways to scale up their capacity. “This group would be expected to submit their report within one month positively,” the central minister said.
Members will include Principal Secretaries of four to five states, MD & CEO, National Skill Development Corporation and Joint Secretary, Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. It will be chaired by Secretary, Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. “There is an urgent need to standardize education; and the States have to become partners in Skill Development to ensure this. All the States have to educate themselves on National Occupational Standards and Qualification Packs so that we can collectively skill large number of people with speed and standards,” said Rudy.
Centre wants States to give their inputs and suggestions on the Draft National Skill Development and Entrepreneurship policy of 2015 already circulated to states. He says the 2015 policy will supersede the policy of 2009. He highlights the fact that the combined vision of Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship and the States is aimed at achieving the overarching objective of “Kushal Bharat, Sashakt Bharat”. He further emphasized on the need for creating a common mission like “Sarva Kaushal Abhiyaan” on the lines of “Sarva Shiksha Abhiyaan”.
He has drawn attention to the fact that the industry needs to decide the type of trained workforce they require in the country today. The government will facilitate efforts in this direction. Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship will handhold states in creating models of excellence at every step. Sometimes what fourteen years of education cannot provide 14 weeks of vocational education can, he observed.
