15. 6. Analysis of National Policy for Skill Development and
Entrepreneurship 2015
Capturing the challenge of Skilling India..
Only 2.3% of workforce has undergone skills
training
Estimated 11.9 crore fresh entrants to work force
need to be skilled, apart from 30.7 crore existing
farm & non-farm workforce
Focus areas of Draft
National SD&E Policy, 2015
• NSQF: Alignment of all skilling
initiatives with National Skills
Qualification Framework (NSQF) and
deadline of Dec 2018 for said alignment
• Entrepreneurship: Recognizes
entrepreneurship as a “key aspect to
complement a successful skill strategy”
• Outcome-based approach: Focus on
increased employability or self-sustenance
as the outcome of skilling
• Role of industry and private sector:
Stresses on participation and ownership of
skill programmes by industry
• Innovation: Necessary to meet the
challenge of skilling India
• The National Skill Development and
Entrepreneurship Policy of 2015 supersedes the
policy of 2009.
• The objective of the 2015 Policy is to meet the
challenge of skilling at scale with speed,
standard and sustainability.
• It aims to provide an umbrella framework to all
skilling activities being carried out within the
country, align them to common standards, and
link skilling with demand.

16. Shift in focus from National Skill Policy, 2009

17. Major Policy Decisions / Plans…(1/3)
 NSQF compliance
• ‘One Nation One Standard’ should become the mantra
• All formal and vocational education including skill training will have to align themselves
with the NSQF by December, 2018
• Development of standards by SSCs will be under the aegis of an umbrella committee
which is already constituted as the National Skills Qualification Committee (NSQC)
under the NSQF.
• SSCs will be strengthened and would ensure that persons trained in NOS/QPs are actually
employed by employers in their sector.
• RPL framework shall be an outcome-based qualification framework linked to NSQF
against which prior learning can be assessed and certified.
 Uniform certification and assessment processes
• All programmes must be aligned to NSQF and have an accountability system

18. Major Policy Decisions / Plans…(2/3)
 Training providers and infrastructure
• For Govt. supported schemes, funding will be linked to outcomes (e.g.
employability, placements)
• Govt. will support the creation and use of infrastructure in both public and private
domain through appropriate equity, grant and loan support.
• Targeted approach of preferential empanelment, approval and funding of training
providers for those sectors and geographies where training capacity is inadequate.
 Need for industry/employer linkages
• Lack of industry/employer linkages has created gaps in terms of sectoral need and
availability
• Necessary to create economic incentive for being skilled, and for industry to realize
that skill, like any commodity, is governed by the laws of demand and supply.

19. Major Policy Decisions / Plans…(3/3)
 Mainstreaming of vocational education
• Skilling will be integrated into formal education by introducing vocational
training linked to the local economy from class IX onwards over a period of next
four years in at least 25% of the schools
• Skill courses would be developed as independent subjects
• Converting Polytechnics to community colleges which will provide NSQF aligned
vocational courses and also Bachelor of Vocational Studies
 Skill Fellows
• The Prime Minister’s Skill Development Fellow scheme to be introduced
• Individuals (selected through a competitive process) will work with State and
District administration to spread awareness, identify local needs and steer the skilling
efforts

21. Basic Information Regarding HUNAR Portal
 The portal called HUNAR (Hallmarking of Unrecognized, Novice &
Amateur Resources) is an LMIS portal which has been developed for
the state by the Jharkhand Agency for Promotion of Information
Technology (JAP-IT).
 Key Features:
 For trainees/potential trainees: Trainees can register on the
portal by providing, among other details, an acceptable ID proof. The
list of all accepted ID proofs is also provided. Once registered,
trainees can search for information on all available trainings.
Displayed information includes name of course, GoJ department
offering the course, course duration and fee, and minimum
qualification for enrolment. Information can be filtered as per
requirement. Information is displayed department-wise, district-wise,
qualification-wise and sector-wise in order to make it easier for
candidates to find an appropriate course.

22.  For concerned departments: Nodal officers of all State Government
departments have been provided their unique registration details. Once
logged in, the nodal officer can approve/reject registration requests by
training providers, upload/edit information about trainings offered by
the department, keep track of trainee requests, etc.
 For training providers: Training providers can register on the portal
by choosing the department with which their trainings are associated.
Once their request is verified and approved by the concerned
department, training providers can choose more departments with
which they are associated, upload information about upcoming
trainings, and so on.

skill delivery
Inadequate training partners in the State
Skill delivery programs not in tune with industry requirements
