time has now come to realize that only skill based education can bring substantive change in unemployment rate among youth. such education should start right from schools. every child must be taught basic skills required in daily life like repairing small electronic products, stitching, painting etc.from class 9 -10th so that youth is equipped to handle odd circumstances and apart from theory has some practical knowledge.

The aim of a career center should not be to educate youth. It should be to give a life skill to a person. He should be able to provide for his family and himself using that. The career center should assess every person who comes for help and suggest a suitable course. No course should be for more that 4 months. At the end of the 4th month the participant should get a guaranteed job placement. The centers should be run by entrepreneurs and 80 to 90 percent of the course fee should be borne by gov

Concept of setting up/converting exisitng Employ. Ex. centres to Career Centre is definitely a good initition. But unless we setup such centres at Taluk Levels and exhibiting Skill Course counters(what and to where it is) for rural candidates, we are not going to achive anything extra. Plus creating District level opportunities is atmost important agasint such initiation but we will achive training and skilling but no scope of employbility. Sivananda Choudhury, 9035070604

A one stop solution is the question both for the needy and the needed. When everything is going centrally, then why not we think for a central and classified employment bank!
