(MENAFN- KNN India) NSDC partners with betterU to bridge skill gap in India
New Delhi, July 16 (KNN) National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) has partnered with Canada based betterU for providing opportunities to the Indian youth to gain access to learning at affordable prices.
Global education-to-employment platform in conjunction with NSIC will work to integrate NSDC's current solutions and technologies and will also collaborate with its partners to strengthen current systems.
The collaborative model has been designed to continually add global content and methods of delivery to support different types of learning mechanisms for freshers, experienced employees and corporates amongst others, the official release said.
Commenting on the association, MD & CEO, NSDC, Dr. Manish Kumar said, 'NSDC is focused towards developing solutions that add value to skill development programs and invigorates vocational training across the country. We believe that this partnership would significantly contribute towards our common objectives of providing high quality learning to Indian youth.
About the partnership, President and CEO, better, Brad Loiselle, explained, 'We believe that education is the foundation for growth, which then increases the household income and supports the economy. We are delighted to partner with NSDC, because our joint vision and business model is to support all skills, and, if we do not have the right content, our business model is to find it and make it available.
The overall challenge is that most educators are focused on specific type of learners, type of content and type of target audience. Millions of people's variables cannot be supported by individual educators. betterU's goal is to provide education support for everyone, he added.
Our partnership with NSDC will help us achieve positive results reaching wider youth population and help in bridging the skills gap, Loiselle added.
