Abstract
This paper deals with the question:
how the experience of other vocational
education and training systems
can India help overcome its
competence gap. Comparative research
has shown that it is possible
for lessons to be learned from the
reform initiatives of other countries
without their mistakes being replicated.
An increased involvement of
the private sector should boost the
quality of the current vocational
education and training system. Involving
the private sector in vocational
training has been successful
in many other countries, especially
in Germany, where the strategy is
seen as underpinning skills training
for young people that reflects
the needs of the market and helps
integrate them successfully into
employment.
