Subject: TRAINING SHORTCUT ? ONLINE VIRTUAL REALITY BASED COURSES
Here is a way to transform
our DEMOGRAPHIC BURDEN into a DEMOGRAPHIC DIVIDEND and , thereby make India the
SKILL CAPITAL of the WORLD ( - Shri Modi's dream )
This announcement need not
wait for winning the next election !
And to avoid all controversy
, I urge Shri Dharmendra Pradhan ( Minister for Skill Development / min.sde@nic.in ) , to make this announcement before the Model Code of
Conduct kicks in !
=============================================================================

Outreach of
skilling is massively scaled up to
cover millions of youths that enter the workforce every year.

Fiscal
incentives to private players whose
skilling targets could be linked to their annual turnover,
·
Incentivizing
the youth through stipends at the school level to join vocational
courses once the skilling ecosystem is integrated with
the secondary school curriculum.
·
Government to
give incentives to private schools and lower
interest rates on loans to create and
expand skills-related training
infrastructure at the
secondary school level.

·
128 million skilled
labour between 2017 – 22 ( apprx , 25 million per

SKILLED WORKFORCE
ELSEWHERE :

than 5 %
·
·
South Korea…………………. 66 %
·
·
Japan……………………………… 80 %
·
·
Germany……………………….. 75 %
·
·
UK ……………………………….. 68 %
·
·
USA ……………………………. 52

============================================================
Following
are my past suggestions
( sent as E Mails to Cabinet Ministers / NITI aayog etc ) :
====================================================
#
Skill
Capital of the World ? [
06 June 2016 ]
·
“ XYZ
Manpower Skilling SPVs “ to be formed by Private Sector
·
Amnesty
Scheme for Black Money invested in such Manpower Skilling SPVs
·
Grant
INDUSTRY status to such SPVs [ Manpower Skilling Industry ]
·
10 year tax holiday for this industry
======================================================
#
50
MILLION NEW JOBS in 5 MONTHS ? [
24
June 2016 ]
· Allow MSMEs to engage
apprentices , without upper limit
· Introduce a 3 year “ Retail
Establishment Training Scheme “
· Stipend at 100 % of Semi
Skilled Minimum Wages
· State Governments to
subsidize 50 % of the stipend
========================================================
# Universal
Basic Income [
20
Jan 2017 ]
· Dividing the Apprenticeship
scheme into following phases :
# Empowering……………..3 years ( Incentive of Rs 1,000 pm to trainee by DBT
)
# Experiencing…………… 3 years
#
Self Dependence Phase
· No upper limit for the
number of apprentices that can be engaged for 3 year period
· Govt to bear 25 % of
Stipend amount and Company to bear 75 %
============================================================
# Discovering
the Obvious
? [
30
Nov 2017 ]
Remove
:
# concept of 5 different “ categories “
of apprentices
# concept of “ Shop-floor
Trades “ for engaging Apprentices
# concept of “ Trade-wise
Ratios “ of apprentices
# distinction between “ Shop
floor “ and “ Office “
, and just say “ Work Place “
# the stipulation concerning “ different years of training for
different trades “ .
Just make all training for 4 years
# the concept of “ Contract Approval “ by Apprentice Advisor
Fix
stipends payable to apprentices as follows :
Starting
Stipend…………….. Minimum wage as per Min Wage Act
Annual
Increase……………… Linked to rise in CPI
Reimbursement of Training Cost incurred by the Employers
25 % of
the Stipend cost to be borne by the Central Government and this amount to be
transferred to the Jan Dhan Account of the concerned apprentice ( as DBT )
This
provision will reduce our “ Cost of
Manufacture “ and help to make India a “ Low Cost Economy “ , without calling this
a “ Subsidy “ and violating WTO rules
==============================================================
# Self
Employed Indians inherit the Earth ?
[ 26
Jan 2918 ]
· Encourage Private Sector to
set up “ E Waste
Repair Training Institutes “
·
Generation of E Waste ( in 2018 ) :
Entire world ……………. 48.50 million tons [ worth $ 62.5 Billion ]
India………………………… 1.95 million tons [ worth $ 2.5
Billion ]
====================================================================
# Organizing
the Unorganized
[ 04
Feb 2019 ]
·
Transform millions of MSME into “ Skill
Training Centres “
# Deliver
online Training Courses for development of various skills through the
Computer
provided by the Labor Ministry for implementation of MaanDhan
Scheme
# Some
of these may be VR based training, requiring VR headsets ( to
be provided
FREE to
MSME by this Ministry ) . These can be used not only by the apprentices
but
also by the MSME’s own workers
# As
an incentive / motivation for the MSME to undertake to
train at least 2
apprentices
per year ( under the Apprentice Act ) , following may be considered :
+ Government
subsidizing the stipend payable to the trainees by 50
%
+ No
obligation to absorb the trainees after completion of training
==============================================================
SIZING UP :
·
With
15,000 existing Training Centres , we are
currently managing to train some 10 million apprentices
every year
·
For
the next 4 years ( including 2019 ) , our target is to train 68 MILLION per year ( 7 times current )
· We just don’t have
funds ( or time ) for constructing 100,000 Training Centres ( 7 times current )
===================================================================
SUMMING UP :
·
Convert
every existing establishment ( factory / office / shop / open yard ) into
a Training Centre
·
Remove
all restrictions as outlined in my above-mentioned suggestions
·
Enable
the unemployed youth ( 12 million / year ) to acquire online training from their
homes , using government-gifted VR headsets [
much cheaper than granting Unemployment Allowance of Rs 3000 pm ( Rajasthan ) /
Rs 1000 ( Andhra ) / many other States )
·
Subsidize
Start Ups ( operating in the field of online Education ) to develop VR based training modules
=====================================================================
