Objectives of the Study
The study objectives included the following at the state as well as the district levels:
• Socio-economic profiling – demography, economic profile of district by industry and state of
education.
• Identification of developmental opportunities keeping in mind factor endowments and stakeholder
perspectives.
• Identification of specific developmental initiatives/projects which have an impact on employment
generation.
• Articulation of the aspirations of the youth.
• Identification of the current and future (2012, 2017 and 2022) skills and human resource
requirements by industry and estimate the gap that exists.
• Studying the existing VT infrastructure both in the private sector, and the government domain.
• Suggestion of suitable interventions/recommendations to address the skills gap.
• Development of specific and actionable recommendations.
• Recommendations were also to include specific initiatives that NSDC can take based on the
mandate of the organization.
• Creation of an action plan

Low per capita availability of training infrastructure

Moderate per capita availability of training infrastructure

High per capita availability of training infrastructure

• VT infrastructure is distributed unevenly across the state. It


is low in districts with a low level of industrialization and
sparse population.

• In per capita terms, Cuddalore, Dharmapuri, Erode,


Kanniyakumari, Perambalur, Pudukkottai, Sivaganga,
Thanjavur, Theni and Tiruchirappalli have high availability of
VT infrastructure.

• Ariyalur, Krishnagiri, Thiruvallur, Thoothukkudi and Tiruppur


have relatively low per capita availability of VT
infrastructure.

Incremental Human Resource Availability
Incremental Human Resource Availability by District (in 000s)

• The decline of the crude

at the semi skilled level is
expected in Chennai,
Kancheepuram,
Tiruchirappalli, Coimbatore
and Tirunelveli.

• The largest human


resource availability at the

is low in districts such as
Ariyalur, Perambalur and

• The Nilgiris has seen a


negative growth in
population over recent
years, leading to negative
growth in human resource

• Youth aspirations and infrastructure creation for skill development are correlated
• There are gaps between industry demand and youth aspirations
• There is a need for skill infrastructure and targeted student mobilization activities through awareness campaigns and student interactions in
sectors such as leather, construction and food processing.

• The highest skill gaps are likely to arise in the most rapidly industrializing districts of Kancheepuram, Chennai and
Thiruvallur.

• The largest skill gap is expected to arise at the semi skilled level. There is an excess availability of unskilled human
resources in 2012-17.

• Enrolment trends and primary research suggest that unskilled human resources are more likely to become skilled
rather than semi skilled. This will cause the skill gap at the semi skilled level to persist.
