The Andhra Pradesh government is building a unique Skill Cascading Ecosystem with industry-academia tie-ups to create an aspirational brand in skilling youth and making them job-ready.
The existing technical and vocational education and training institutes in the State will become part of this cascading ecosystem, with the proposed Skill University at the top of the pyramid and various industries serving as spokes for training youth in different vocations.
“We are now shifting our approach from supply-driven to demand-driven skilling to meet the requirements of the industry. For this, we are collaborating with industries in a very big way to build the latest skill infrastructure,” said A.P. State Skill Development Corporation (APSSDC) Chairman and Principal Secretary, Skill Development and Training Department S. Suresh Kumar.
