Key Expectations from Swiss Program

5/11

L4 & L5 – Bottom of the Pyramid Workforce

Present Scenario in India

Productivity from Day 1 of Employment

After 2 years in ITI, 1 year apprenticeship it takes 2 to 3 years to train the new technicians

Solid foundation of knowledge base – Technical and in English, Data Entry, Calculation

Unable to even read & understand Technical English – all drawings are in English.

Improved morale and motivation = Increases loyalty and reduces attrition

Due to low basic level, very difficult to meet aspirations, and they get disconnected from the industry Unable to contribute sufficiently and therefore are left out of team & actions.

Team with pro-active thinking and action Ability to Deliver Quality Product with Systematic Working

Lack of awareness & training to produce consistent quality in a systematic way.

Key Expectations from Swiss Program

6/11

L4 & L5 – Existing Workforce

Present Scenario in India

Short term Skill upgradation programs required for Electronics, PLC, Pneumatic, Electro-Pneumatic, Hydraulics & Robotics, Welding & Fabrication

The present availability of acquiring such skill sets in India is limited to single skill set such as hydraulics or plc or pneumatics but nothing comprehensive & generic.

L2 & L3 – Engineering Students

Present Scenario in India

Exposure to Students in Engineering Colleges & Existing Technical Team in Industrial Automation practical in Industry, CNC Machine training

No access or set up for training in industrial environment with latest technologies & developments.

The CHALLENGES of Vocational Training in India Parent & Peer (Societal) Mindset

“lack dignity of labour”

Industry Readiness

Space for better remuneration for better workforce

Aspiration is to be an “Engineer”

Lack of awareness of quality, working system, right tools at owner level Not ready to invest in Human Capital Training for fear of loosing the employee

Government Ecosystem

Lack of Permeability in Education system

Educational Institutions

Looking at education as business, not ready to engage in practical training

Inability to bring Industry, Society, Education & Policy makers on one platform

Not willing to collaborate for permeable education system

Disconnected from Industry needs

9/11

Concluding Note – Points to Ponder Our Summary • The NEED is Very Strong and the Solution found is the most appropriate • The curriculum, delivery methodology, industry participation with government certification is being retuned, readjusted considering the constraints which exist, as we cannot change the system overnight, but we can surely work around the system and deliver what we intend to do.

• The SWISS Style Apprenticeship Training shall be the fulcrum for reaching Internationally acceptable safety, quality and productivity standards, and thank SkillSonics® to connect us with this opportunity which as Mahatma Gandhi always said “be the change you wish to see”.
