8. training on basic dressing/attire, suitable grooming and cleanliness must be essential part of the course. 9. Skill centers must promote products and services made by trainees for sale/auction/festivals. For example, a Cook trainee can be sent to a marriage function in village to lend a helping hand. A dress designer trainee's stitched dresses can be sold in the village/weekly bazar with his her name tag/center's name tag. Regards Satyarata Tripathy

They must know how to initiate a talk, how to ask appropriate questions, how to clarify if something is confusing, how to give crisp, clear and approprate answers to the most practical questions on job and in social life.They must be trained on how important it is learn from life and contain unneccessary ego/attitude/inhibitions that generally creep in during small town/village social life.

5. Classroom training must be followed up by- a. Mock sessions b. Mock/real time on the job session c. City/District Level exams along with practical tests for certifications. 6. The examiner in such practical exams must not be a government officer. He/she must be someone who is a private enterpreneur of any scale. May be the owner of a popular Beauty parlor of the nearest city. This will provide a realistic results before certification.

3. We must add progressive courses like cooking, basic customer service and Waiter/attendant job, Security services, Housekeeping. A lot of young people come to cities and find jobs in small hotels/eateries, offices as cleaning staff and wahing staff. Skilled manpower in this area shall improve their demand and pay scale as well. 4.Driving courses and first aid courses along with Hygiene training should also be included. They will nt only find employment but also contribute to cleanliness.

Sir, following are some of the points I have for career centers; 1. The modules or courses must be very basic and practical which touch our routine lives. This is because we are talking about skilling the extremely unskilled unemployed youth/women in small towns and cities and villages.So employment/employability after the course shall be the main attraction. 2. Courses like carpentry, Electrical work, Mobile repairing, Stitching and embroidary, tailoring, hair cutting and salon/beautician

Dear respected Modiji, I propose a model enabled with technology to provide the "COLE" to all youth in the form of C - Coaching O - Opportunities (open jobs on both government and private sector) L - Learning E - Exposure (through internships with companies, government or with educational institures) this can be further elaborated if the idea is accepted on how to enable this on a digital technology platform based on the selection or shortlisting of this idea.

Agriculture/ farming should be encouraged as a career & be developed as an imp industry in public sector. Lands should be acquired / adopted for this & the youth , especially from farmer/ labour families should be attracted to it by ensuring quality education in agriculture/ horticulture related occupations.The career centers should have tie ups with above agro-industires ensuring direct placement from such educational institutes giving agro-education.This approach will solve many problems.
