Background
An oft-voiced and addressed concern with regard to
education and employment is that candidates with good academic credentials
are not able to get prestigious
employment opportunities. Experts in this line of thought opine that the
students, though educated are seldom employable, as they lack skills in areas
which are most sought after by the industry.
To overcome this and to ensure that the youth are
able to secure employment in desired levels, the Government of Kerala has taken
the first step by setting up the Model Finishing School in the capital city of
Thiuvananthapuram. The Model Finishing School is a joint initiative of IT
Department, Government of Kerala and Institute of Human Resources Development
(IHRD), with the support of Infosys. IHRD is the coordinating agency and
is overseeing the day-to-day functioning of the Model Finishing School.
Training
The training at Model Finishing School is aimed at
moulding students before they step into employment. Providing such training
would have twin benefits, firstly, the students are well-prepared to enter the
job market, which will positively impact their productivity at the workplace
and secondly, companies will be spared of the huge amounts of investments
required in pre-employment training, especially in areas like soft skills.
The 40-day training would include technical and
soft skills besides English language skills. Individual attention and rigorous
evaluations are the hallmarks of the course. The students are put through
various activities to help them overcome inhibitions of any sort and realize
their full potential. Regular home assignments are given to strengthen classroom
learning. Extra support is also given to weaker students.
Training will be held at the Finishing School
premises, Science and Technology Museum Complex, PMG Junction, Trivandrum.
Faculty
Training will be provided by faculty members drawn
from diverse fields and trained by Infosys.
