Dear Sir/Madam,
Warm Greetings!

With pleasure, we invite you to contribute a research paper to an edited volume titled
Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. This book is dedicated to publish high quality
research papers providing meaningful insights into the substantial management content both in
Indian as well as global context. Original research papers, conceptual articles, case studies and
book reviews are always welcome. We firmly believe that your contribution will enrich the
academic and intellectual content of the book along with opening up of new endeavours of
research.
The skill development of the working population is a priority for the government. This is
evident by the exceptional progress India has witnessed under the National Policy for Skill
Development and Entrepreneurship (2015) over the years. The objective of the policy is to expand
on outreach, equity and access of education and training, which it has aimed to fulfil by
establishing several industrial training institutes (ITIs), vocational schools, technical schools,
polytechnics and professional colleges to facilitate adult leaning, apprenticeships, sector-specific
skill development, e-learning, training for self-employment and other forms of training. The

government therefore provides holistic sustenance through all its initiatives in the form of
necessary financial support, infrastructure support and policy support.
Today, India is one of the youngest nations in the world with more than 62% of its
population in the working age group (15-59 years), and more than 54% of its total population
below 25 years of age. Its population pyramid is expected to bulge across the 1559 age
group over the next decade. It is further estimated that the average age of the population in India
by 2020 will 1 be 29 years as against 40 years in USA, 46 years in Europe and 47 years in Japan.
In fact, during the next 20 years the labour force in the industrialized world is expected to decline
by 4%, while in India it will increase by 32%. This poses a formidable challenge and a huge
opportunity. To reap this demographic dividend which is expected to last for next 25 years, India
needs to equip its workforce with employable skills and knowledge so that they can contribute
substantively to the economic growth of the country.
