Under the Modular Employable Scheme (MES), a Government of India initiative, even an industry or service sector can become a Vocational Training Provider (VTP). A student with a minimum qualification of fifth pass can get admission in the VTP. According to his aptitude, he can be skilled and trained in a modular way. On completing the course, he will receive a NCVT certificate that is National Council for Vocational Training, which is not only recognized in our country but also acknowledged globally. Our department has, till now, doubled the capacity of all the vocational centers”.

For example, 35 lakh employment opportunities will be generated in the retail industry. The vision of our department is that education should be relevant. The curriculum should be student-centric, futuristic and globally competitive. In higher education, there has to be expansion. The gross enrollment ratio in India has to go high.”
