In a bid to bridge the skill gap and enhance employability across India, the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) has partnered with Unstop, a leading community engagement and hiring platform. This strategic collaboration is set to create a comprehensive ecosystem aimed at equipping the youth with the skills and opportunities they need to thrive in the competitive job market.
The MoU signed today focuses on offering career opportunities, mentorships, skill-based finishing courses, and next-gen role-based assessments. The partnership will align industry needs with young talent through Sectoral Skill Councils (SSCs), providing pre-assessed candidates for employers to hire seamlessly. Ved Mani Tiwari, CEO of NSDC, expressed enthusiasm, stating, “This partnership with Unstop marks a significant step in bridging the skill gap, empowering our youth to thrive and contribute meaningfully to the nation’s workforce.”
In Guwahati, this initiative will play a pivotal role in uplifting local youth by providing them access to skill-building platforms and industry-specific job opportunities. With the growing demand for skilled professionals in the region, this collaboration offers a chance for young individuals in Guwahati to connect with national employers, ensuring better employment outcomes and economic growth. Unstop, with its network of over 19 million students, is well-positioned to create significant impact, democratizing access to skill-based employment across cities, including Guwahati.
