Education is an endless process needed for the development of any nation. India being one of the developing country concentrates on four aspects of youth education as maximum present of youth are in our country and who are going to build this universe. The four central aspects of youth education are identified as : (1) lifelong learning; (2) an amplified version of basic education which includes pre-school, elementary and secondary level education; (3) links between formal and non-formal education; and (4) education for work.
First three are practiced by all the schools but the schools less concern the last education for work. This aspect can be affected by means of vocational training.
The role of education in facilitating social and economic progress has long been recognized. Education improves functional and analytical ability and thereby opens up opportunities for individuals and also groups to achieve greater access to labour markets and livelihoods. A better educated labour force is instrument of enhancing efficiency but is also an effective tool of widening and augmenting democratic participation and upgrading the overall quality of individual and societal life.
Skill and knowledge are the engines of economic growth and social development of any country. Countries with higher and better levels of knowledge and skills respond more effectively and promptly to challenges and opportunities of globalization. India is in transition to a knowledge based economy and its competitive edge will be determined by the abilities of its people to create, share and use knowledge more effectively. This transition will require India to develop workers into knowledge workers who will be more flexible, analytical, adaptable and multi skilled.
In the new knowledge economy the skill sets will include professional, managerial, operational, behavioural, inter personal and inter function skills. To achieve this goals, India needs flexible education and training system that will provide the foundation for learning, secondary and tertiary education and to develop require competencies as means of achieving lifelong learning. RMET Skill Council is trying to make the vocational training programme successful all over India to uplift Youth.
