New Delhi: Dharmendra Pradhan, the Union Education Minister called upon US instructional establishments to companion with India in unexpectedly remodeling the education and the skilling panorama. Calling for greater educational collaboration between higher training establishments in each country for supplying twinning programs, joint levels, and twin diploma programs, Pradhan stated, “The new National Education Policy (NEP) has laid emphasis on internationalization of education. I called upon American institutions and companies to partner with India in the rapidly-transforming education and skilling landscape. A growing digital economy, aspirational population, a knowledge-based society, and policy reforms are creating unprecedented opportunities in India.”

The comments had been made at the India Ideas Summit attended by the education minister. The summit was organized by the America-India Business Council and the United States Chamber of trade, global Affairs, South Asia. The subject matter of the event became ‘Maximising the subsequent 75 years of US– India Prosperity.’ “India and the US have similar societies and shared values. Education and Skill development are important pillars of Indo-US relations,” Pradhan stated.

The minister further asked for strengthening collaboration in the areas of research and skill development between the two countries.

“India is taking great efforts in skilling, re-skilling and up-skilling its youth. India has a large, young and educated population who are an asset to any industry globally if they are provided focussed training and capacity building as per industry requirements, he further added. India is positioned favourably mainly due to its demographic advantage and various skilling initiatives,” Pradhan mentioned.
