Globalization and the Knowledge Economy

Developing countries are faced with enormous pressure to make a successful transition fromDeveloping countries are faced with enormous pressure to make a successful transition fromthe pre‐globalisation era into the new globalised economy structure. Despite the fact thatIndia is on the fast track of development, the Government is faced with ‐

The challenge to enable majority of the Indians to participate in the benefits of growth and g j y p p gto contribute to that growth.

The current knowledge oriented economy requires a new generation of skilled peoplecapable of competing at a larger, global platform. To do this the largely unskilled Indian labourforce must have education and training that equips them for the new knowledge based labourmarket. One of the sources of the skilled workforce is the vocational education and trainingsystem. However, the current system is not being able to appropriately respond to the needsof the market.

A key national issue, therefore, is what interventions are needed to improve the effectivenessof the vocational education and training system.
