Next Step: Education to Employment
A virtual conference in partnership with UNESCO
Opportunities exist to use technologies for assessment and credentialing, supporting TVET programmes for economic and social development. TVET's impact on social and economic measures has often been impaired due to the complexities and costs in projects which have not used technology appropriately.
Download a policy brief on digital credentials by Certif-ID and UNESCO, highlighting the use of technology to keep the promises of TVET.
In Focus
WHY ADDRESS LABOUR AND EMPLOYMENT MOBILITY ISSUES IN INDIA?
5 million salaried jobs lost in July
100 million migrant workers left jobless
Over 18 million Indian’s lost jobs since April
To avoid further mass job losses, there is a need for reform in India’s education and labour market, creating new economic opportunities.
New solutions that encompass multiple communications channels, ensuring business continuity can help educators, professionals and employers navigate the complex landscape of education and employment.
Skilled workers who belong to the informal sectors are unemployed and countless jobs are increasingly at risk.
To ensure business continuity, we need to embrace new solutions that encompass multiple communications channels and open new employment possibilities.
