OVERVIEW
YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN ASSESSING SKILLS
The demographic dividend that India holds is a double edged sword. On the one hand, it offers a large pool of employable talent that can support a big majority of global employment requirement. But on the other, if the talent is not properly moulded to employable resource, this dividend will act counterproductive with a large number of unemployable and unemployed resources.
With this objective, the government has assigned multiple bodies the responsibility to train and skill individuals who can offer skills in various identified areas for employment. While training is an important aspect of this initiative, assessing the skills learnt is critical for validating the expertise acquired.
MeritTrac, with our experience of measuring employability across industry segments has been supporting vocational skills bodies and training organizations in assessing skills to support further learning and evaluate learning.
MeritTrac’s outcome based assessments for Information and Communication Technology, Banking, Insurance, Retail and Refrigeration have been proven to be reliable tool to assess and validate skills acquired.
