Abstract:
India is far better placed in comparison to the developed world in terms of the youthful population. The youth have the potential, zeal and determination to usher transformation in the social patterns and the policy initiatives. Even with better facilities and amenities available today, there is sizeable proportion of the youth especially in the underprivileged sections of the society, who can barely complete their school education due to various reasons. The concept of ‘on the job’ skill development has become a far cry now and the chances of getting good employment with an institutional degree are lessening day by day. Thus, the employment opportunities for youngsters from such sections are bad and the chances of their continuing in the jobs even when they get it are bleak and often fraught with problems. The severest being a high attrition rate with the employers. This paper presents an innovative approach to build 21st Century Skill Set of the youth (age group 18-27) years to make them job ready for retail sector in the National Capital Region (NCR) of Delhi. It also discusses the prevalent system of employment in the retail sector and the ways and means to plug the gaps for holistic development of the youthful workforce and for providing them sustainable source of livelihood through Smart Learning.
