Education is a process which enables a student to think for himself and make his decisions in life. However, the present day Education system puts emphasis on rote-learning (死记硬背) and unhealthy competition. This often leads students to depression (抑郁症) at times. However, if a student is allowed to continue his own interests then their personalities would bloom and they would also be successful in their careers.

   There exists difference between market demands and the skills of India’s educated youth. For example, every year approximately 650, 000 engineering graduates pass, out of whom nearly two thirds need to be re-skilled, so that they can get jobs in the industry. The developed world requires knowledge workers and skilled professionals. By 2020, the developed world will have a shortage of 40 million working people, says a report.

   These figures show the shortage of skilled manpower in India in comparing to the jobs existing in the market. This mismatch occurs due to many reasons.

   A few of them are as follows:

   A. Low motivation among students to receive vocational (职业的) education.

   B. The inflexible minds of parents and educators in accepting vocational courses.

   C. Many vocational courses that are being offered have become out of date.

   D. There is poor linkage between institutions offering vocational courses and the private sector (行业). Students often find it difficult to secure proper employment immediately after completing their courses.

   In order to keep up with the market demands of India, students should be encouraged to take up vocational education. They should be allowed to study the subjects they like. Teachers and parents must become more open-minded about students’ career and life choices. There should be enough infrastructures (基础设施) to support vocational education. Educational institutes could link up with companies so that students can be employed soon after they complete their studies. These are a few ways in which the gap between vocational education and market demand for skilled manpower can be bridged.
