This article gives a snapshot of current much discussed skills development in the country which is linked with the vision 2021. However, one major problem remains is the employment generation to validate the skills development activities. Another point of this article is to propose more use of engineers (i.e., engineering human resources of the country) for skills development and also some enhance role of IEB in this area.

Businesses are spending heavily on recruiting and developing young talent through direct entry graduate schemes and other early careers programmes, yet 25% of companies have unfilled positions due to graduates having a lack of employable skills.
Whilst the transformation in Further Education funding has increased the focus of universities on employability, this is failing to engage a large number of students and provide the personalised support in their moment of need. Many young people are feeling overwhelmed as they take their first steps on their career resulting in high numbers of employees being disengaged and uninspired in their work.
So, who's doing anything about it?
There's a gaping divide in who owns the problem, with employees looking for their employers to take the lead and provide visibility of their future careers options and businesses looking for individuals to take control.
ME+® fills the gap, putting people in control of their own careers and guiding them to achieve their ambitions.

Almost 40 per cent persons in India are children. On 10 July 2014, the new BJP Government presented its first budget, popularly being called the NAMO Budget.

Access and Inclusion Index. Benchmark report 2016. Australian Network on Disa...Dominique Gross
The Access and Inclusion Index is a suite of tools for Australian organisations to use to understand, assess, benchmark and improve their disability confidence to meet the needs of their customers and employees with disability.
These tools will help organisations review their policies, procedures and practices to establish their progress in being accessible and inclusive for people with disability. It will increase understanding of access and inclusion, and provide opportunities to receive guidance on how to be welcoming to people with disability across their business.
The ten key areas determined to drive the greatest benefits for access and inclusion of people with disability within an organisation have been determined as follows:
1.Commitment
2.Premises
3.Workplace Adjustments
4.Communication and Marketing
5.Products and Services
6. Information and CommunicationTechnology (ICT)
7.Recruitment and Selection

It is a fact that development of higher education and development of a country are closely related. Any country that is developed today in the world is mainly for its quality higher education. Therefore quality assurance in higher education has been one of the major challenges in the development agenda not only in India but also all over the world.

A National System for Lifelong Guidance - Belfast 231014Deirdre Hughes
The purpose of this presentation was to introduce the building blocks of a national system of lifelong guidance and to explore the structures needed to develop and or strengthen careers education and guidance policy systems and evidence-based practice.
Planning in the region starts with a vision about what we want to be. It is the aspiration of the Filipinos particularly those from SOCCSKSARGEN Region to have a long-term vision for the region and the country as a whole to become a prosperous, predominantly middle class society where no one is poor. The challenge is how every Filipino can afford to have a “matatag, maginhawa at panatag na buhay by 2040.”
This presentation was made by Robin Shreeve, CEO of AWPA at the 7th Annual Australasian Talent Conference 2013, 28-30 May 2013 in Sydney themed: Agile Talent Management - Optimise, In-source, Outsource, Offshore, Redeploy.
The CfWI horizon scanning team has produced a series of posters to represent the key messages from the CfWI report Big picture challenges for health and social care - implications for workforce planning, education, training and development which is due to be published shortly.
The posters focus on the five domains of Health Education England's Education Outcomes Framework
excellent education
competent and capable staff
adaptable and flexible workforce
NHS values and behaviours
widening participation
using them as a basis to put forward thought-provoking questions.
