However, the definition of 'skill' in India, and the world, in general, has changed tremendously over time. From Job Opportunities to Personal Growth, skill development, particularly, has been the hot topic for concern due to the major role which it plays in fuelling the growth of an individual. India has the world's largest population of about 500 million in the age bracket of 5-24 years and this provides a great opportunity for the education sector. The education sector in India is estimated at US$ 91.7 billion in FY18 and is expected to reach US$ 101.1 billion in FY19. However, there is a major skill gap in the country as 80 percent of graduates especially from the engineering stream end up being `unemployable'. In today's world of Globalization, Skill Training has an Integral component of increasing efficiency & productivity of an individual. With increasing competition and the changing demands of the market, it is essential that individuals, whether students or employed continuously upgrade their skills. Skill India is a campaign launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 15 July 2015 which aims to train over 40 crore people in India in different skills by 2022. While schools and colleges are playing their roles in contributing to the knowledge of learners, training institutes are playing a crucial part by filling in the skill-void within candidates. A college degree might as well land you a good job in corporate but it is the right skill and training which will place you in the right place. Taking note of this, in this issue of Higher Education Review Magazine, we have showcased a list of `Training Institute of the Year ­ 2019'. A carefully curated list, it portrays the uniqueness of individual institute and how they are contributing towards the growth of an individual. We strongly believe that it is important to bring such institutions to the limelight, so that, their ideologies and methodologies can inspire other institutions as well as students to pursue distance learning courses. Hope this feature helps you in your future endeavors and we achieve our mission.Your thoughts are always welcome!Deepshikha SinghManaging Editordeepshikha@thehighereducationreview.comSkill Training is Important in Current Education EcosystemVol 7 · Issue 8-3 · NOVEMBER 15, 2019Publisher & Editor Alok ChaturvediManaging Editor Deepshikha Singh Editorial Team Aveek Pal Chaudhuri Lakshmi G Tanuja A Akkannavar Sambit Satpathy Sthitaprajnya Panigrahi Rohan A TEditorial Queries Sales & Advertisement Advertisement queries Office To Subscribe Visit www.thehighereducationreview.com/subscription or send email to subscription@thehighereducationreview.comCover price is Rs. 150 per issue.Printed and Published By Alok Chaturvedi on behalf of BizprintMedia Technologies Pvt Ltd and Printed at Precision Fototype Services at Sri Sabari Shopping Complex, 24 Residency Road Bangalore-560025 and Published At No. 124, 2nd Floor, Surya Chambers, Old Airport Road, Murigheshpalya, Bangalore-560017.Copyright © 2019 BizprintMedia Technologies Pvt Ltd, All rights reserved.
