Current state of education in India seems to be inefficient to breed employable and skillful graduates and they need to be retrained to fit into the efficient workforce.

The system is fragmented and there are no set rules of training and professional development for when, how much, what type and for whom. The metrics exist but are insufficient and its hard to predict the actual value and return of these programs. Read on...
