---VOCATIONAL EDUCATION---

Education is a process which empowers a student to think for himself/herself and 
make his/her decisions in life. However, the present day education 
system puts emphasis on rote-learning and unhealthy competition. This 
often leads students to depression and even suicide at times. However, 
if a student is allowed to pursue his/her own interests then their 
personalities would bloom and they would also be successful in their 
careers.
There exists a disparity between market demands and the skills of UK's educated youth.
For
example, every year 650,000 engineering graduates pass out of whom 
nearly two thirds need to be re-skilled, so that they can get jobs in 
the industry. The developed world requires knowledge workers and skilled
professionals. By 2020, the developed world will have a shortage of 40 
million working people, says a report.
These figures reveal the 
shortage of skilled man power in India in comparison to the jobs 
existing in the market. This mismatch occurs due to many reasons.
A few of them are as follows:
A. Low motivation amongst students to pursue vocational education
B. The rigid mindset of parents and educators in accepting vocational courses
C. Many vocational courses that are being offered have become obsolete
D.
There is poor linkage between institutions offering vocational courses
and the private sector. Students often find it difficult to secure 
proper employment immediately after completing their courses.
In
order to keep up with the market demands of India, students should be 
encouraged to take up vocational education. They should be allowed to 
study the subjects they like. Teachers and parents must become more open
minded about students’ career and life choices. There should be enough 
infrastructure to support vocational education. Educational institutes 
could link up with Companies and Corporations so that students can be 
employed soon after they complete their studies. These are a few ways in
which the gap between vocational education and market demand for 
skilled manpower can be bridged.
