- Skill development programs are being implemented in Manipur under the University Grants Commission (UGC). Community Colleges, Bachelor of Vocation (B. Voc.) and Knowledge Acquisition and Upgradation of Skilled Human Abilities and Livelihood (KAUSHAL) Kendras in the higher education sector become one of the important concepts taken up as measures to reduce the unemployment problem. However, the alignment of the syllabi and curricula with the National Occupational Standards (NOS), the uniformity in lateral and longitudinal entries, credit transfer system, and choice of trades, unavailability of the skilled trainers, industry linkages and placement are the main issues in this regard. In this paper we discuss the issues, responses, grievances and prospects while implementing the scheme of skill development programs in Manipur with suggestions to achieve the envisioned goals.
