/ -- As a part of the initiative to raise skill awareness, IMS Proschool, one of the leading skill development and knowledge providers, is initiating '#skillyatra'to shrink the skill gap in India from Jan 14, 2019. As a part of this mission, they are riding over the bicycle to reach out to youth in colleges and 'mentor, motivate and guide' them about the awareness of right skills. This mission is also bringing together leading experts from various industries to interact with the students and help them to solve their career-related queries.

Talking about the unique endeavour, Mr. Kamlesh Sajnani, stated, "At IMS Proschool, we're continuously working towards imparting skills and knowledge in a holistic fashion. Looking at the digital era we live in, students blindly take every information written about skill-sets, career growth, etc. on the internet as gospel truth. The truth is that such information is too impersonal and there is a high probability that the students may face a dilemma while selecting the right option. On the other hand, while there are jobs, we are increasingly witnessing lack of adequate skill-sets due to insufficient information and absence of proper guidance. Skill Yatra is one of the ways to contribute to this transformation and bridge the gap by imbibing the awareness of inculcating relevant skills that can help them become job-ready. We're sure that this initiative will help us to take a few steps closer towards our goal of transforming the career paths of the youth across India."
Speaking about the objective of Skill Yatra and how it will help youth to develop global skills, Mr. Sanjay Chaudhary, CEO - IMS Proschool commented, "With global boundaries diminishing, there is an alarming need to get globally qualified to stay competitive. Fortunately, we are living in the days where we have access to the institutions offering global curriculum along with state-of-the-art facilities within the vicinity. And, Skill Yatra is a first-of-a-kind initiative to spread the word about what skill sets need to be learned, unlearned and relearned. Many engineers are still not able to bag jobs in their respective domains. By empowering the future leaders with this knowledge, we hope to enrich the professional lives of today's millennials."
