The Centre plans to upgrade the nine-year-old National Career Service (NCS) portal to link millions of youths with prospective employers in a bid to prepare a future-ready workforce, two government officials said.

The ministry of labour and employment, which is working on the upgraded version of the portal — NCS 2.0 — plans to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to make it more efficient.

The launch may take six-nine months, one of the officials cited above told Business Standard.

Apart from that, the upgraded version of NCS will have micro sites for states and districts.
