She further explained that Inuit has a strong partnership with academia to help bridge the gap, and that rests on three pillars - connection with the company, the impact of work, and helping them upskill within the organization. One of the crucial areas that Inuit’s Rituparna Dasgupta highlighted was finding the balance between hiring externally versus focusing on retaining talent and training them, which would be a far more cost-effective method. I believe that we also have to do a lot to build that capability.” I don't believe that it is some kind of blame game - that they are not coping up or we are not there. So I think we have to look at the entire value chain holistically. Because we are giving mentoring support, and we are giving capability-building effort.
But how about our think tank working with those engineering students for these NGO projects? If we are doing these kinds of linkages, then, without too much investment, we are building capability.
Speaking of how enterprises can work with educational institutions to build capabilities, Srilata Kolachana said, “We have CSR initiatives where we work with schools, and it is a great way to build talent. “The learning experience is something that we really need to catch up on if we are not doing enough,” she added. Technology augments the teaching process and helps efficiently track critical metrics to deliver the best outcomes.Īnd even as we adapt to the transformation in this space, two themes that need to be addressed here, according to Nidhi Pant, are context (the rationale behind the upskilling exercise) and secondly, curating the right experience for the learner to bring about the best impact and returns from the process. One of the key takeaways from this discussion was the need for businesses to adopt agility in their approach and be aware of the changing face of technology and market demands.ĮdTech companies like Great Learning invest heavily in R&D and innovation for their platforms. The discussion sought to highlight the strategic aspects of upskilling - by examining its current state in India’s enterprises and identifying the bottlenecks that industries faced in rolling out successful upskilling initiatives.
