New Delhi Dec 26 (KNN) A Sub-Group of Chief Ministers on Skill Development was constituted to address issues pertaining to human resources, especially creating a pool of skilled manpower with speed, scale, standard and sustainability.

The Sub group has submitted its report. The recommendations of the Sub Group include use of funds from Education Cess and part of CSR funds for skilling in India, according to an official report.

The Sub group has also recommended that instead of replicating ICT Academy of Tamil Nadu in each State, the existing and established organization (ICTACT) can open chapters / branches in willing states, where local administration can be represented, for carrying on its activities.

According to the report submitted that the State Skill Development Missions (SSDMs) should evolve into a coordinating body to harmonize the skilling efforts across line departments/   private   agencies/voluntary   organizations etc.   The common norms announced at the central level may be adopted by the SSDMs so as to have State-specific guidelines for skill development programmes.

The recommendations of the Sub Group cover a wide spectrum of skill development in the country including improving quality, relevance, quantity, aspirations, mobility and financing of skill development. Action Points for implementation of these recommendations have been identified and referred to concerned Central Ministries/Departments, State Governments and other stakeholders, said the release.
