Skilling the youth for a self-reliant India
Gainful livelihood for every aspirant
Enabling and enhancing livelihoods directly or through eco-system strengthening
The strategy to achieve a large impact is both through direct interventions with youth as well as interventions in organisations in the skill development ecosystem, who, in turn impact youth.
We will continue to scale up the courses which skill the unemployed youth for careers in the formal sectors. This would be through our centres and various partner centres. We will continue to bring in focus on select sectors which have sustained an increased demand for careers. Skilling for jobs in the IT/digital sector has grown significantly during the last year and will continue to grow.
Tata STRIVE is aligned with the 25 sectors of focus identified by the Union Government as well as skill gaps identified by the National Skill Development Corporation.
Skill development in formal sector aims to train learners for employment within industries of choice or pursuing entrepreneurship through registered business activity. The training is done through centres as described below
Skill development in informal sector aims towards providing livelihood training for agriculture and allied sectors, as well as industry sectors like auto repair, apparel, construction where typically people are self-employed or work for those who are self-employed.
The intent at Tata STRIVE has always been to provide holistic training to our students, thereby helping them transition into the workplace seamlessly. To make this possible, our curriculum, doesn’t just offer training for domain skills, it also addresses the need to acquire soft skills such as grit and determination, growth mindset, communication skills, etc. Our curriculum also includes fungible skills like financial literacy, critical reasoning etc. Collectively these modules are referred to as “Youth Development Programme” – which is offered standalone in various programs as well. These modules are taught through activity-based learning or experiential learning, thereby making them more effective.
Tata STRIVE has from the start promoted the need for informed career choices being made. Picture-based games and digital tools enable the individual to understand their aptitudes which, along with counselling, helps them make the right career choices. When there is a personality–job fit, there are greater chances of students staying on the job
Tata STRIVE designed its career counselling offering in a unique way to capture the interest of an individual. We have a picture-based, gamified, language-agnostic, and customisable career assessment solution to help the youth make informed career choices. Coupled with this assessment are career discovery videos offering a view of the world of work. This gives them a realistic perspective of a particular job role and provides clarity, thereby helping them make informed career choices. Counselling services through chatbots or with a human interface were value additions made to the offering as a complete solution. Tata STRIVE intends to market this offering widely. This tool is already adopted by West Bengal government for helping their youth make informed career choices.
The Skill Development ecosystem is in need of quality improvements. Tata STRIVE contributes to this effort by offering faculty development, technology tools and platform, process improvement and quality assurance tools to its collaborators and partners so that the ecosystem at large stands to gain. As an example, Tata STRIVE’s Train the Trainer programs for trainers identified by Sector Skill Councils helps in capacity building of Faculty in various domains, so that they can deliver training more effectively to the youth.
Tata STRIVE has trained 8000+ trainers who have indirectly impacted close to 7 lakh youth.
Our courses are designed to help learners to excel. The induction of students to a particular course is based on a scientific selection process that maps learner interest to course choice. The instructional methodology takes into account different learning styles, thereby creating opportunities for immersive and intensive learning along with constructive collaboration.
