Skills development is a National movement to provide Indians with opportunities to develop potential to the fullest extent throughout their life, regardless of their prior experience, he said.

Through this movement, the skills, passion and contributions of every individual will drive India’s next phase of development towards an advanced economy and inclusive society, he said.

Speaking further about the initiative of IITMPTF, Prof Sarathi said “This course aims to bridge the gap between idealized concepts learnt from the foundational courses in engineering and the real world.

Our experience clearly indicates that there is a need to strengthen the skills needed in general engineering and to build an intuition in relation to that, he said.

‘The contents of the training program for engineering students are identified through the skill gap between engineering curriculum and practicing engineer.’

Content of course is designed to cover the modules Modelling, Basic Manufacturing, Digital manufacturing and Entrepreneurship, he said.
