President Pranab Mukherjee on Friday launched a single window platform to aggregate supply and demand trends in the Indian skill development ecosystem, referred to as the National Labour Market Information System (LMIS) www.lmis.gov.in. India Skills Online (www.indiaskillsonline.com), an online platform for learning skills of choice has been launched to reach out to millions of job seekers. This has been followed with five major initiatives to assist the country’s youth.
These initiatives are Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana 2.0 and India International Skill Centres. The Labour Market Information System (LMIS) would consolidate, monitor and evaluate all skilling programs across ministries and agencies in the country. Through LMIS, the existing knowledge, systems, and technical expertise can be leveraged as much as possible, which would further avoid overlap of generated information and duplication of efforts.
Key stakeholders of the LMIS comprise trainees, training providers, industry/employers, sector skill councils, government agencies/policy makers, assessment agencies, certifying agencies, funding agencies, international agencies, labour market tracking agencies and government and private placement agencies (inclusive of employment exchanges).
LMIS brings together statistical (quantitative) and non-statistical (qualitative) information concerning labour market actors and their environment and generate key analysis and reports which can be used for various policy interventions by different government stakeholders, as well as by the industry at large. The National Skills Development Agency (NSDA) is designated as the lead agency for the development of the national LMIS. NSDA is undertaking a phase wise approach for the integration of required data.
With the introduction of Online Skill-learning environment, the whole nation potentially becomes a classroom. The audio-video graphical illustrations format will help internalize the concepts for the skill-seekers, faster and longer. Online, the hard skills are supported by soft skill learning opportunities that help candidates become more confident, presentable, professionals. Thus enabling them to become more aware, and better suited for the work environment of the day. The web skilling opportunities, come coupled with the convenience of learning and practicing the skill-nuggets with the convenience of a mobile app.
