New Delhi, February 01, 2021: It is a welcome move to train engineers, but we are forgetting that arts, science, and commerce background students forms the majority of higher education bucket (close to 70% of entire intake). Most programs are unable to cater to these majority population, skilling should be inclusive and not just be focused on engineers. New age digital skills can also be learned by arts, science, and commerce background students. The learning curve is slightly steep, but it is very much possible and we have seen people picking it up. I would like to see for inclusive points in apprenticeship training that can cover a broader spectrum of people and not just niches. Probably it is because the narrative is owned by engineer employability, but I request to government to make this inclusive for all types of higher education students.
