The country is well endowed with many metallic and non-metallic mineral resources. India is a leading player in respect of many non fuel minerals including, iron ore, ...
India needs to build and strengthen its educational infrastructure in order to ensure that it is able to meet existing and emerging skill demands. Currently India lags behind in terms of employability of its human resources - amongst the age group of 15-29 years, only about two percent are reported to have received formal vocational training and another eight percent received non-formal vocational training.This is significantly low when compared to industrialized countries.
If skills in the mining sector are provided for people.they only know about the theoretical form so it doesn't help for any people.they trained in the practical manner means it helps a lot to gain knowledge about that domain.
Classroom education is essential for clarity of fundamentals. In mines, safety aspects are at apex. These are possible only in theory at classroom.
less theory & more practical or field work training in Helath, safety, environment is better for coal & other Mining workers-but it is not applicable in oil&gas exploration-- I am sharing my experience-- here one Oil&gas worker need more latest technology & computer experience other wise they can't alone operate the drilling M/c-s
There are several challenges preventing India’s rural masses specially poor people from competing in the modern market, such as the lack of formal education and marketable skills. Government may bridge this gap by funding training projects bench marked to global standards, with an emphasis on placement, retention, career progression and foreign placement etc.
According to Census 2011, India has 55 million potential workers between the ages of 15 and 35 years in rural areas. At the same time, the world is expected to face a shortage of 57 million workers by 2020. This presents a historic opportunity for India to transform its demographic surplus into a demographic dividend.
Nothing can beat on-site learning on any given day. Human are best in mimicking and its better to first show them how its done and then correlate it with theories taught in class-room environment, this way student will be able to grasp the knowledge and key concepts in much better and efficient way.
Yes the skills in mining sector are developed in class room environment as there are many course running in America successfully like gold mining degree/diploma which not only help in searching the mining material but also in how to dig that material successfully with minimum wastage of that material but practical or field work training is also necessary.Having both the practical and theoretical knowledge can help them in working more efficiently.
yaa it is possible develope a skill in class room eniverment but at a same time practical knowlage is requried
