A skilled workforce plays a critical role in a country’s economy and nation-building. This year’s theme around transformative future and recognizing the crucial role of educators in equipping young people with the skills is completely apt at a time when the world is going through a significant transition with disruptive technologies challenging traditional work. Skilling and up-skilling have never been more crucial, TSSC is taking aggressive steps to train the skilled workforce for the telecom industry and 5G rollout. We are constantly working towards designing industry-driven skill development programs focused on specialized training in these technologies. As India is emerging as the fastest-growing economy, a youth with the right skills would be the key to ensuring this growth momentum in future as well.
