The discussion focuses on the critical gap between academia and industry in India’s skill development sector. It posits that the demand for skilled workers should originate from the industry, which needs to interact more with academic institutions. A key argument presented is that the government should enable private industry to lead training initiatives, suggesting that companies could offer diploma certificates under the NCVET program. The dialogue highlights a fundamental issue with the current system: "The trainers in the ITI are engineers. How can an engineer who never held tools in his hand go and train people?". Using Coimbatore as an example of a potential industrial innovation zone, the programme advocates for creating a robust ecosystem where industry and academia work together, possibly by tying up with institutes in Germany and Switzerland to create world-class syllabuses. #skillindia #skillgap #makeinindia #itwebvideos #industry #academia #workforce #educationreform #vocationaltraining #coimbatore #futureofwork #jobs #training #govt #skilldevelopment #itis
