This book explores how the Indian education and training system prepares young people for the world of work and for the requirements of the employment market - because India is a leading industrialised nation with a very young population and a high demand for a skilled workforce. Indian experts write from a course-specific perspective, offering a comprehensive picture of educational policy, curriculum design and cultural characteristics. The virtual absence of a formalised system of vocational training in India underlines the importance of this research.

Prof. Dr. Matthias Pilz is Full Professor of Business Education at the University of Cologne and Director of the Center for Modern Indian Studies at the University of Cologne (CMIS-UC) and of the German Research Center for Comparative Vocational Education and Training (G.R.E.A.T).

(Rajendra Prasad Mamgain, Journal of Educational Planning and Administration, Vol. 22 (2), July, 2019)
"This book is successful in the sense that it provides most recent data and statistical analysis of India's economic and educational indicators.
