It has a population of 77.7 million between the age group of 18-20 years (census 2011). Most of this age group will enter the work force in the next 2-5 years, some aiming for college education in the process. Others having to make do with the semiformal/informal sources of employment. Of the reported, more than 25 million students enrolled in
undergraduate courses in the country today, a significant proportion will face a large gap between the skills required for an entry level White/Pink collar job and those that they would possess.
The gaps are centered around soft skills, professional abilities, data handling skills and lack of exposure to specific entry level competencies required by some of the large providers of such opportunities. Simultaneously, such providers have a large unmet demand for entry level manpower that is productive from day one.
SkillWorld will change the way the youth of the country spends time in college. They will help them acquire skills and utilize them in a commercially productive manner! It is a venture meant to connect the college going youth with Job Ready skills, which will position them favorably for entry level “White/ Pink collar jobs” or “Self-employment”. While they learn, they will also begin to gain job experience and earn.
