Most leave school for the purpose of higher education, so it is in a better position to find a job of their choice. Traditional production three or four years of university education is the classic choice of 10-plus-two. But at the end d ‘, Anuradha Mohit discovered and they have not really been any qualifications for a certain type of work. Kruttika, on the other side of monitoring the training directly after school and found that it helped to develop their skills to direct employment.

She is now with its beauty products and hair dressing training in a full-time job with a prominent beauty salon. She plans to work in recent years. One day, his goal is to be independent. Even Mudalliar Commission (1952) pointed out that at the end of secondary school, a student must be able to assume responsibility for life and take a call.

Recently, the Union has the government announced the easing of the clause to check emigration, for those going abroad. These include those of 10 plus two qualifications and those in possession of two-year diploma, certificates recognized by the institutions by the National Vocational Training or its equivalent to the USA.

Coherent on the addition of 10-plus-two models of education, vocational training program was adopted in 1977-78 under the direction of education, Delhi. The training courses are offered:

* Based on electrical engineering, automobiles, structure and manufacturing, air conditioning and refrigeration equipment and electronics technology

* Based on Trade: Office Secretariat, shorthand (English), accounting and auditing, marketing and sales, banks, life insurance, insurance and railways assistant

* Home-based medicine: Restoration and Management Services, the conservation of fruits and vegetables, fashion design-build and clothing, textiles, dyeing, designing and printing textile design and weaving.

* For health and medicine based on: health and beauty, culture, ophthalmic technology, medical laboratory technology, auxiliary health and obstetrics and X-ray technicians.

* Hotel and tourism based on tourism and travel, hotel and catering management technology and the bakery and confectionery

* Based on agriculture: milk production, horticulture

* Other courses: computer application, library and information science.

The Delhi University (DU) has launched an initiative in the year 1972 by the creation of the College of Vocational Studies. Later, most members of the AU has launched universities offer courses in industrial relations and personnel, management, entrepreneurship and small business development, tourism, publishing, office and secretarial, practice management, retail and trade, to register. Some institutions of higher education began, job-oriented, short-term courses to equip students, jobs in the sector Corporate houses.

Sri Guru Govind Singh College of Commerce, began in Duisburg, two new training courses - Diploma international marketing and business degree in journalism and corporate communication. Industrial Training Institute (ITI) and high schools offer specialized engineering and non-technical, vocational training. The duration varies from one to two years.

The National Open in the capital, the school offers courses such as typewriters or word processing, secretarial practice, furniture and cabinets, home economics, food and Front-office management, poultry, home wiring and repair of household appliances, radio, tape recorder and television repair, cutting and sewing, Outfit, health, Beauty-culture, library Meanwhile, the cold air conditioning and a certificate in computer . The duration varies from six months to one year.

Students’ science and engineering projects are facing a unique problem in the state. On National Science Day (February 28) that marks the day Sir C.V.Raman discovered the Nobel-winning Raman Effect, we take a look at why many student projects don’t reach fruition.

The Karnataka State Council for Science and Technology (KSCST) has over the last 25 years sponsored 4,500 projects under its Student Project Programme (SPP) in engineering colleges spending over Rs 1.50 crore. But hardly five of them have materialised into products, though hundreds more have the potential. The reason for these liliputian numbers: Students work on the project for six months during the final year of their engineering — too short a period to develop an entire product or process.

“The next batch of students are reluctant to work on their seniors’ half-completed projects. A product takes nearly five years to evolve into something acceptable in the market,” KSCST Secretary Prof. D.K. Subramanian told The Times of India. One exception has been the Bapuji Institute of Engineering and Technology, Davanagere, whose students have spun out silk ties and shirts for the market. “We are now talking to several industries to sponsor these projects on a royalty basis, taking the students as interns,” says Subramanian. The carrot being dangled is a job at the company in the long run.

The KSCST has identified medical electronic instruments and devices, agricultural implements and food processing as some of the areas where existing projects have commercial potential. Product Development Centres (PDCs) were set up in colleges to develop successful projects into products and processes. They were to improve on the projects, modify, scale-up and conduct field trials. Automatic rapid dyeing and oil dispensing machines, grain disinvestors are some of the products that have come out of PDCs. “We found that PDCs were not delivering,’’ says Subramanian. So funding to these centres has been reduced.

The SPP was launched in 1977-78, to egg students on to apply their creativity to solve developmental problems and enrich collegiate education. Every year, KSCST recieves over 700 project proposals, of which 200 win support after evaluation. Over 100 senior faculty of the Indian Institute of Science and scientists from other national labs form the review and technical assistance body. Science Day: Bangalore Association for Science Education based in Jawaharlal Nehru Planetarium will celebrate National Science Day on Friday with a lecture (in Kannada) at 4.30 pm titled ‘New Members of the Solar System’. It will be followed by the screening of a Science Movie at 6 pm at the Planetarium.
