Objective: “To Help Youth to Realize their Aspirations” Youth have aspirations but there are no credible institutions to help them talk or discuss their issues. Youth also need assistance to understand their real needs and strengths and build their life around these. There are many “Market players” who drive youth to achieve their company goals rather than what an Youth want. Yuva Poshak would become the answer for this issue ... more details in the concept note

Step 1 - Create Zones (East,West,North,South) then subdivide zones in to minimum 10 centres Step 2 - Use poll data, demographic data and census data from above zones and identify the level of education and awareness, skills and ability along with what training or support required, local recognised NGOs, schools/colleges can be involved in this Step 3 - be flexible with centres, close and open it wherever needed and involve media for constant support and gaining mass ideas

The Career Centre Should be named "Local Employment Assistance Program (LEAP). LEAP will help taking a another leap into the student career. the tag line should be "Leap ka Samadhan , Ab naukri pana hoga aasan". Attached is the detailed suggestion. Thanks

The career centre needs to work in tandem with the industry and not merely be another institution. The career centre needs to discuss with the local industrial houses on their requirements and run courses accordingly, If skilled manpower is available locally as per the need and requirement of local industry then it creates a win win situation for all. There will be social upliftment of geographical area, no migration, job opportunities for youth of the local area.

The challenge is that the career centres should be able to come to the rescue of those in the informal sector like electricians, carpenters, etc. They don't have access to proper mechanisms which can help them in commanding good salaries or fees. I have attached a pdf file which endeavors to provide some solutions to this challenge based on market dynamics.

#Career Centre , how the private training sector works , business model. Training is high growth area, revenue from training fees and commission from recruiters. Here govt will pay training fees in low skill and high attrition area, High skill demand area recruiters can pay training fees ( at least part) .this corpus can be used for sustained training.
