There is a ever growing debate over the skill gap between Industry Need and Academic output in the country. With rapid globalization, extreme competition and ever changing needs of corporate world, the job seekers are expected to be dynamic, quick learners, problem solvers, adaptive and technically ready to meet the n eeds and demand of today’s industry.

The gap between academics and industry is due to several reasons. Students need more clarity on the choice of subjects from the early stages of education and need a proper guidanceat the time after school and through the years of junior college and graduation education. The industries also need to guide early and give the students the right picture of their requirements and what programs students need to pursue.

The problem may be that the traditional educational institutions are not designed for a fast-changing market where skills depreciate quickly. Universities are not designed to change curriculum and introduce new classes at the pace required by changing industry requirements. The line between the years we learn and the years we earn has blurred; to stay relevant, workers must be trained for knowledge nonstop. Even if educational institutions evolve and ensure newly minted workers are ready for employment, workers must continue learning throughout their lives to stay relevant.

The good news is that we can close the skills gap if job seekers and employers can be trained for skills which they require to work in industry. Recent graduates/ job seekers or more experienced workers need to step in and take skill development and education programs in their mindsfromUniversityAlliance Company.”In a situation where most of the students are not sure ‘which educational program’ will help them find a good job.”, it’s a requirement of the college / University to give them good enabling environment by embedding right mix of industry interventions and corporate exposure through industry visits, guest lectures by industry professionals etc. InnoServ Solutions Pune is one such company which offers such support to colleges / universities.
