À propos de cet audio
In an ideal scenario, a child’s educational journey begins in a classroom and culminates in an office. In school, the child acquires a solid foundational education, which equips her years later for a good job. That is the popular picture of success.
In an ideal world, this journey should be a pipeline delivering workforce-ready students. However in reality, the collective journey suffers pitfalls such as drop-offs in middle-school, poor foundational education that leaves students ill equipped for the workforce. How is this gap between education and employability to be bridged?
At the foundational level, the course of this journey can be corrected by introducing socio-emotional learning, which imparts skills that are handy in real-life situations and in one's career such as relationship building and decision-making. At the career stage, ed-tech organisations offer specific skills that equip people to adapt to the evolving demands of the workplace. This is particularly empowering for women keen to join the workforce remotely as Harappa demonstrates and for graduates from low-economic backgrounds as shown by HCL's TechBee programme.
