The document discusses the issue of an employability gap between the skills possessed by graduates and the needs of employers. It notes that the gap is caused by graduates lacking 21st century skills needed to deal with real-world uncertainties. The document attributes this problem to issues in higher education like lack of quality, focus on rote learning, and outdated syllabi. It proposes establishing centers of excellence at universities to impart 21st century skills through hands-on learning and collaboration. Robolab Technologies in Pune is presented as an example of such a center that aims to match skills training to market demands.
