Many of you might have noticed, or in fact even experienced in first hand, that a student of a undergoing Academic qualification questions to himself quite often, in exasperation, “Why in the world am I studying this?” Clearly as a result, education and knowledge no more remains to be something that a student seeks out, but has turned into something the student is forced to push into memory just for the sake of passing his/ her exams in subjects may not be his/ her forte. Now, it is time to revolutionize this way of thinking which degrades the concept of knowledge and skill which is so revered in all Indian religions. It is our time to progress; it is our time now; for this educational revolution, so needed by the current society, can only be achieved by vocational education.
Vocational Education and training is the way to bridge this gap and to make the Students Industry Ready. It is the next big transformation happening in India. Vocational Education is a time tested model prevalent in China, Germany and Switzerland; any student who has completed SSC, ICSE, CBSE, NIOS or IGCSE can take up a vocational program as a career instead of pursuing academic education i.e. XI & XII in Arts, Commerce or Science.
Vocational Education, an empowering alternative to Academic Education
Vocational education is like an insurance against unemployment and also allows the student to pursue Graduation in the same trade. You can even start your own business with the “Skill” you have acquired.
As per the current education system, even after Graduation (B.A., B.Sc. or B.Com.) students lack employable skills and hence they end up doing mundane jobs like clerical, junior accountant, sales, etc. Of the 2.5 million university graduates India produces each year, nearly 20 per cent have engineering degrees and diplomas, but the National Association of Software and Services Companies (NASSCOM) estimates that only 25% of the technical graduates and 15% of other types of graduates meet the standards of employability.
The Indian youth must not simply focus on acquiring a graduate degree, which will only provide them with theoretical knowledge of their field of choice, but in fact must expand their focus to include Vocational training which will give them hands-on experience as well as provide them with the practical knowledge and understanding of all the skills required specifically in their field of choice.
The following figure depicts the difference between traditional Academic Education and Vocational Education:
RAGC – Dahanu

Global Scenario : Switzerland
In Switzerland, the most popular form of upper-secondary level of education is vocational education. Approximately 2/3rds of the population of Switzerland have been provided with a firm grasp of their occupation through vocation education and training. It is perhaps due to this that Switzerland enjoys the second highest rate of employment- 83%. In fact a dual system of education exists where, Professional education and training (PET) is the next step after Professional education and training (PET). The VET/PET dual system thus ensures that the young people of Switzerland have a bright future in the career by providing them with a solid foundation, and also at the same time it works to satisfy the demands for skilled labour.
Global Scenario : Germany
Vocational education and training is widely respected in German society. The system offers qualifications in a large number of occupations and flexibly adapts to the changing needs of the labour market. In Germany, learning on the job is a traditional component of the education system. All vocational training is aimed at imparting comprehensive professional competence in the occupation of an individual’s choice. Vocational training in Germany is guided not only by the needs of the labour market, but also by the need for individuals to acquire skills, knowledge and capabilities that allow them to successfully prove themselves on the labour market. Germany has a well-developed and institutionalised VET research capacity, including the Federal Institute for VET, (BIBB), and a national network of research centres that study different aspects of the system to support continuous innovation and improvement in the VET system.
Global Scenario : Australia
In Australia vocational Programs are provided by public Technical and Further Education (TAFE) Institutes, private colleges and a number of schools and universities. Here, the Industry and the Government work together and they shoulder the responsibility of providing vocational education, which in turn helps to provide the skilled labour required by them. At the Vocational Education and Training institutions of Australia, individuals are provided with the studies of a wide range of disciplines, including: business and management, science and technology, design and arts, communications, sport and recreation, community service and health, tourism and hospitality, engineering and building, horticulture and land management and English. Also, the students are also provided with Apprenticeships in various fields to provide them with further on-the-job training so that they can better hone their skills.
