Did you know that less than 20% of Indian college graduates are employable?
Schools and colleges focus almost exclusively on technical knowledge, and ignore critical areas like industry exposure and soft skills development. This problem has been exacerbated by the need for companies to recruit more candidates from Tier 2 cities, as well as to seek talent at lesser known colleges. The ‘Freshers’ face career limitations due to their limited English language capabilities, weak communication skills, and poor interpersonal skills.
At the same time attrition levels are high as more and more companies chase the scarce talent available. To combat attrition, small and mid-sized companies are promoting people in record time. Employees are often expected to take on new roles and responsibilities well before they have developed the skills, knowledge and maturity necessary for these roles. Inexperienced managers may actually contribute to an increase in attrition rates, thus creating a vicious cycle.
Even large companies operating in the Indian environment have begun to face these challenges and are looking for ways to bring their employees rapidly up to speed.
In all emerging and high growth industries, companies are faced with the need to not only find people with the requisite technical skills, but also to invest heavily in training their employees in the soft skills that are essential for working with colleagues, customers, suppliers, and with their counterparts across countries and cultures.
In our years of experience in working with and consulting different corporates as well as providing Training solutions to different organizations and institutions has enlightened us with the needs of the professional world. There is a need for a positive and adaptive behavior that enable individuals to deal effectively with the demands and changes of everyday life.
Keeping in mind the importance of life skills training we have developed a learning module which is a continuous learning process. It has been named "CeEsd" (Communicative English & Employability Skills Development). A soft skills training program for school / College goers that is interesting and helps them develop themsleves better. This training module has been designed in such a way that the students learn Language and get trained in behavioral skills through activities and various exercises.
The training we facilitate in degree colleges (Engineering/ Management, General) traverses Life-Skills and Employability Skills catering to Teachers and Students to help them improve their performance in respective fields. Build their Self confidence and help them perform better in life. There are separate Teacher's Training Programs and Pre-Placement Training programs for students.
Employability skills are transferable core skill groups that represent essential functional and enabling knowledge, skills, and attitudes required by the 21st century workplace. They are necessary for career success at all levels of employment and for all levels of education.
What skills do employers want? How do these skills match those that youth and adults are developing through their college studies and experiences? How can education and training programs prepare individuals to enter a rapidly changing workplace? These and other questions are continuously examined by our team of professionals. We explore skills currently needed for employment. We have been investigating, for the last couple of years, the evolving topic of employability skills.
Highly skilled, adaptive blend of technical and human relations ability are recognized by employers as the primary competitive edge. Job-specific technical skills in a given field are no longer sufficient as employers scramble to fill an increasing number of interdependent jobs. Many experts point out the importance of continuously developing skills beyond those required for a specific job, and they identify employability skills that enable individuals to prove their value to an organization as the key to job survival.
