In view of the COVID 19 crisis having accelerated and accentuated the need to review and upgrade the existing systems and processes to bring a boost to the Skill India Mission, the Federation of Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FICCI), released a report, Skill India Reforms: Study on Regulations, Compliances and the Skill Ecosystem’ during its 13th Global Skills Summit – Education to Employability: Making it happen’ in New Delhi on Sep 27. The report was unveiled by the union skills minister, Dharmendra Pradhan, who assured to look into the report recommendations for acceptance.

While the report has captured the regulations, schemes and bottlenecks and provided a snapshot of the formal skilling effort in the country, the highlight is the set of recommendations it has made for the Government, for industry and its bodies, and academia.
